Rapid and unstable preferential flow has a significant impact on soil carbon cycle. This
review aims to explore the effects of preferential flow on the soil carbon cycle and indicate its …

Tracers in Hydrology and Water Research is a comprehensive overview of the application of
natural and artificial tracers in hydrology and environmental research. Taking a unique …

Preferential flow is often thought of as a spatially and temporally highly variable and random
process and, as such, essentially unpredictable. This chapter discusses the experimental …

For the investigation of many geometrical features of soils, computer-assisted image
analysis has become a method of choice over the last few decades. This analysis involves …

Preferential flow may strongly affect hydrology at different scales. Measurement of
preferential flow however remains very difficult. Tracer-infiltration profiles are often used to …

Preferential flow is a widespread phenomenon that is known to strongly affect solute
transport in soil, but our understanding and knowledge is still poor of the site factors and soil …

Knowledge of soil moisture dynamics in the unsaturated soil zone provides valuable
information on the temporal and spatial variability of groundwater recharge. This is …

Due to its high spatial and temporal variability, preferential flow is difficult to measure and
quantify. Earthworms create macropores that provide common pathways for preferential …

To address the effects of land use and land cover (LULC) on soil structure formation and the
significance on preferential flow during infiltration, dye tracer experiments were conducted …

Preferential flow (PF) through soil and regolith results in a rapid vertical and lateral water
movement within the profile. This study focused on quantifying PF in contrasting forested …
