Does fire alter soil water repellency in subtropical coastal sandy environments?
, 2017 Irregular wetting, water repellency, and preferential flow are well-documented properties of coastal sandy podzols, though little is known about the effect of fire on unsaturated zone processes in this environment.

ORIGEM DOS COMPOSTOS HIDROFÓBICOS E SEUS EFEITOS EM FLORESTAS DE Pinus E Eucalyptus
Ciência Florestal, 2015 Hydrophobicity can be understood as the soil water repellency or difficulty to soil wetting. This is associated with the coating of soil particles by hydrophobic organic substances and currently there are numerous reports of water repellency in forest ...

Improvement of Water Movement in an Undulating Sandy Soil Prone to Water Repellency
, 2011 The temporal dynamics of water repellency in soils strongly influence water flow. We investigated the variability of soil water content in a slight slope on a sandy fairway exhibiting water-repellent behavior.

Factors injecting effectiveness of two surfactants on water-repellent soils
California Agriculture, 1970 WATER-REPELLENT soils are characterized by two undesirable physical properties: low water infiltration rate, and high runoff. Such soils have been reported in many parts of the world under various conditions, however, one of California's real practical ...
