[PDF][PDF] Porosity and pore size distribution
JR Nimmo - Encyclopedia of Soils in the Environment, 2004 - wwwrcamnl.wr.usgs.gov
A soil's porosity and pore size distribution characterize its pore space, that portion of the
soil's volume that is not occupied by or isolated by solid material. The basic character of the …
