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. This paper examines how sorptivity
and its capillary component (as wetting front potential) change with...
Many different models and mechanisms of water imbibition into soil have been described in the literature. Theoretical equations based on those models exist to predict how water will flow in porous media. These models can be useful, but have their weaknesses. Research on imbibition and infiltration into soils has mostly...
