A Bio-Wicking System to Mitigate Capillary Water in Base Course [PDF]
, 2016 Water within pavement layers is the major cause of pavement deteriorations. High water content results in significant reduction in soil’s resilient behavior and increase in permanent deformation. Conventional drainage systems can only drain gravity water

Field Experiments of Rainfall‐Induced Weathered Granite Residual Soil Shallow Landslides
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Affected by the extreme climate in recent years, the heavy rainfall has induced a large number of shallow landslides along roads in the granite residual land area in southeast China. Currently, the hydraulic response, evolution mechanism, and failure process of unsaturated granite residual soil landslides at the field scale are not well understood.

Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Soil–water retention characteristics and plant‐available water (PAW) are critical for irrigation management in semiarid Andosols. This study determined the soil–water characteristic curves (SWCCs) of Andosols at the Melkassa Agricultural Research Center (MARC), Central Rift Valley (CRV), Ethiopia, using a pressure plate apparatus at matric potentials ...

Comparative analysis of four soil water sensors for irrigation water management
Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract With the increasing availability of soil water sensing technologies for irrigation management, it is essential to compare sensor options in production field settings. In this study, four soil water sensors—CropX, FieldNet with Watermark sensors, Valley Aqua Trac Lite using Sentek probe, and Aqua Trac Pro with Watermark sensors—were compared ...
