A general method for quantifying random processes of water infiltration into soils to improve water security. [PDF]
Sci RepAs the climate is becoming drier and extreme climatic patterns intensify worldwide, the present water scarcity worsens. Options are urgently needed for harvesting the increasingly variable rainwater to secure water supplies for societies and the ...

The Development of A mathematical Model to Predict Runoff From A micro-catchment under High Water Application Rates [PDF]
, 1988 Current trends in sprinkler irrigation to improve application uniformity and reduce energy requirements haste led to problems of water application and potential surface runoff, which in turn have highlighted the importance of the soil and cultivation

The effect of water stage on the infiltration rate for initially dry channels [PDF]
, 2007 Several hydrological models that are used for simulating the water flow in rivers and channels are based on the shallow water equations as in Copeland and El-Hanafy, (2006) or Saint Venant equations (El-Hanafy and Copeland, 2007a). Both the shallow water

Sponge cities: potential of urban soils of São Paulo (Brazil) in flood mitigation and ecosystem services provision [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do SoloUrban soils play a crucial role in regulating the hydrological cycle, particularly in flood management. This study investigates the morphological, physical, chemical, and hydrological properties of soils in Villa-Lobos Park, São Paulo (Brazil), to assess

Modelling of water infiltration into water repellent soils
, 2022 Abstract. Infiltration into water repellent soils has been widely observed, quantified and documented. The modelling of water infiltration into water repellent soils is more rarely taken into account explicitly. In this study, we modelled water infiltration into water repellent soils considering explicitly the contact angle, with the geometrical pore ...
