Infiltration is a key process in aspects of hydrology, agricultural and civil engineering,
irrigation design, and soil and water conservation. It is complex, depending on soil and …

Core Ideas Land surface models (LSMs) show a large variety in describing and upscaling
infiltration. Soil structural effects on infiltration in LSMs are mostly neglected. New soil …

Nine chapters deal successively with the following topics: general considerations on soil,
including soil genesis, classification, and map**; the soil pore system; soil water and …

A complete treatment of the theory and practice of groundwater engineering, The Handbook
of Groundwater Engineering, Second Edition provides a current and detailed review of how …

Exact integral solutions for the horizontal, unsteady flow of two viscous, incompressible
fluids are derived. Both one‐dimensional and radial displacements are calculated with full …

Estimates of characteristic times to approach steady state flow in multidimensional infiltration
in the landscape depend on the magnitude and character of the capillary length scale λc …

Analytic solutions are presented for a nonlinear diffusion‐convection model describing
constant rate rainfall infiltration in uniform soils and other porous materials. The model is …

The new edition of a bestseller, Water Flow in Soils bridges the fields of soil physics-where
descriptions of water flow tend to be microscopic-and hydrology-where they tend to be …

This Second Edition for the standard graduate level course in conduction heat transfer has
been updated and oriented more to engineering applications partnered with real-world …

The problems of flow and transport in porous media present many fascinating challenges to
students of mechanics: and it is surprising that, over the years, these questions have …
