Temperature influences water sorptivity of soil aggregates

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2013
The aim of this study was to determine the potential development of water sorptivity of soil aggregates by heating. Soil aggregates were sampled from arable layer of 5 Polish soils: Haplic Luvisol 1 from Czesławice, Haplic Luvisol 2 from Wierzchucinek ...

Modeling effect of initial soil moisture on sorptivity and infiltration [PDF]

open access: yes
A soil’s capillarity, associated with the parameter sorptivity, is a dominant control on infiltration, particularly at the onset of rainfall or irrigation. Many mathematical models used to estimate sorptivity are only valid for dry soils.

Sorptivity of dual-permeability soils

open access: yes, 2022
International audienceSorptivity is a crucial parameter for modeling water infiltration into soils. Many works have related sorptivity to the soil hydraulic functions, i.e., the water retention and unsaturated hydraulic functions.

Modelling infiltration and geostatistical analysis of spatial variability of sorptivity and transmissivity in a flood spreading area

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2014
Knowledge of infiltration characteristics is useful in hydrological studies of agricultural soils. Soil hydraulic parameters such as steady infiltration rate, sorptivity, and transmissivity can exhibit appreciable spatial variability. The main objectives

Exploring the Role of Ash on Pore Clogging and Hydraulic Properties of Ash-Covered Soils under Laboratory Experiments

open access: yesFire, 2022
Fires can alter the hydraulic properties of burned soils through the consumption of organic matter on the ground surface. This study examined the effects of rainfall on the presence of soil pore clogging with varying ash layer thickness using laboratory ...

Beyond the sorptivity : definition, measurement and properties of the secondary sorptivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Capillary imbibition in brick, stone and concrete occurs in two stages. The primary process, which occurs in the standard test to measure sorptivity, is a spontaneous imbibition in which air is displaced by the invading liquid (usally water).

Pore Size Distribution Influence on Suction Properties of Calcareous Stones in Cultural Heritage: Experimental Data and Model Predictions

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2016
Water sorptivity symbolises an important property associated with the preservation of porous construction materials. The water movement into the microstructure is responsible for deterioration of different types of materials and consequently for the ...
