Determination of near surface hydraulic conductivity from infiltration measurements

Abstract

Infiltration characterize the water entry into the soil during rainfall and irrigation It is an important parameter for the hydrological modelling of catchment There are different methodologies adopted in the field that can induce variability in infiltration characterization Such variabilities and the possible factors need to be studied in detail There is a need for critical assessment of measurement variability associated with infiltrometer measurements under different field conditions soi...
