Percolation characteristics of a water‐repellent sandy forest soil
In a tracer experiment TDR transect measurements were made to study percolation behaviour in a 120‐year‐old pine stand (Pinus sylvestris) on a water‐repellent sandy soil (Haplic Arenosol). The…

By limiting infiltration and facilitating preferential flow, water repellency in surface soils produces wetting patterns which differ substantially from those in comparable wettable soils. Seasonal…

Soil water repellency has important consequences for ecological and hydrological properties of soils and usually retards infiltration capacity and induces preferential flow. This phenomenon has been…

A modified version of the popular agrohydrological model SWAP has been used to evaluate modelling of soil water flow and crop growth at field situations in which water repellency causes preferential…

How water moves in a water repellent sandy soil: 1. Potential and actual water repellency
Water repellency is an important property of many soils. It causes rainwater to penetrate into the soil as preferential flow paths, and solutes can reach the groundwater more rapidly than in the case…

How water moves in a water repellent sandy soil: 2. Dynamics of fingered flow
The dynamics of fingered flow in a water repellent sandy soil was studied in the field by sampling 10 vertical trenches in a 1-year cycle. In dry soil, fingers were formed in those places in the top…
A three-Region Analytical Model of Solute Leaching in a Soil with a Water-Repellent Top Layer
When water enters a water-repellent topsoil, fingers develop and a large part of the soil is bypassed. Therefore fingering is expected to accelerate solute leaching to the groundwater. In soils with…
