Groundwater extraction in most Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries far exceeds
its renewability, which ranges from 6% to 100%. Freshwater resources to support food …

Soil degradation is a short or long ongoing process that limits ecosystem services. Intensive
land use, water scarcity, land disturbance, and global climate change have reduced the …

When restoring dryland ecosystems, growing biological soil crust (biocrust) may greatly
change the redistribution of rainfall in layered soils. However, ecohydrological modelling …

Imbibition is a commonly encountered multiphase problem in various fields, and exact
prediction of imbibition processes is a key issue for better understanding capillary flow in …

The present paper applies a simplified Green-Ampt (GA) infiltration model for the numerical
modelling of seepage processes within the body of the Maga earth dam, located in the Far …

Construction of recharge dams across highly permeable beds of alluvial streams is one of
the most important techniques used for artificial groundwater recharge from muddy surface …

We develop a new analytical infiltration model to determine water flow dynamics around
layer interfaces during infiltration process in layered soils. The model mainly involves the …

The filtration of fine solid particles suspended in water by two porous media, a column of
glass beads (2-mm diameter) and a column of artificial sand (1–1.6-mm diameter), was …

Abstract In the Green-Ampt model, the infiltration rate is indirectly related to time via the
intermediate term of cumulative infiltration depth. In the present study, the direct theoretical …

Abstract The Russian engineer Kornev in his 1935 book raised perspectives of subsurface
“negative pressure” irrigation, which have been overlooked in modern soil science. Kornev's …
