Hydrologic behavior of model slopes with synthetic water repellent soils [PDF]
, 2017 In the natural environment, soil water repellency decreases infiltration, increases runoff, and increases erosion in slopes. In the built environment, soil water repellency offers the opportunity to develop granular materials with controllable ...

Small-scale contact angle mapping on undisturbed soil surfaces [PDF]
, 2013 Research of the last years pointed out that most soils are neither completely hydrophilic nor hydrophobic, but exhibit a subcritical level of water repellency (i.e.

Acta hydrologica slovaca, 2023 The intensity and severity of a wildfire can influence the persistence of soil water repellency (SWR) in the affected area. The effects of fire on the SWR of forest soils depend on the type of forest vegetation, the quantity of the organic component of ...

Journal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2017 This study explored the effect of soil water repellency (SWR) on soil hydrophysical properties with depth. Soils were sampled from two distinctly wettable and water repellent soil profiles at depth increments from 0-60 cm. The soils were selected because

Critical conditions for the wetting of soils [PDF]
, 2006 The wettability of soil is of great importance for plants and soil biota and in determining whether flooding and soil erosion will occur. The analysis used in common measurements of soil hydrophobicity makes the assumption that water always enters soils ...

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.The southwest Kalahari dune field has resident fine grains which may be emitted as mineral dust after protective vegetation is removed by fire. However, low wind speeds, high initial surface cover, and the protective effect of biocrusts result in the low possibility of the southwest Kalahari emitting dust post‐fire.

Evaluating the Economic Impacts of Climate Change on Aotearoa–New Zealand's Dairy Sector
Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 71-86, January 2026.ABSTRACT This study examines the economic impacts of climate change on Aotearoa‐New Zealand's (A‐NZ) dairy sector, a critical contributor to the nation's GDP and global agricultural trade. Using a combination of biophysical and economic modelling, including the Dairy Sector Pathways (DSP) model and a multi‐country partial equilibrium model (LTEM), the ...

Soil water balance and wettability methods in soil treated with biochar and/or compost
Carbon Research, 2022 The impacts of biochar application in combination with compost on soil hydrological conditions such as infiltration, water-storage capacity, and methods of soil wettability, are not well understood.
