This review discusses the causes and consequences of 'non‐equilibrium'water flow and
solute transport in large structural pores or macropores (root and earthworm channels …

Fractals are spatial and temporal model systems generated using iterative algorithms with
simple scaling rules. This paper reviews the literature on spatial fractals as it applies to soil …

An evolving, living organic/inorganic covering, soil is in dynamic equilibrium with the
atmosphere above, the biosphere within, and the geology below. It acts as an anchor for …

Modern hydrological models require information on hydraulic conductivity and soil-water
retention characteristics. The high cost and large spatial variability of measurements makes …

Fractal theory has been widely used in petrophysical properties of porous rocks over several
decades and determination of fractal dimensions is always the focus of researches and …

The characteristics of the soil macropore network determine the potential for fast transport of
agrochemicals and contaminants through the soil. The objective of this study was to …

A pore‐scale numerical model based on Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is
described for modelling fluid flow phenomena in porous media. Originally developed for …

Computed tomography (CT) provides a nondestructive means of observing soil structure
and monitoring solute breakthrough in real time. We investigated an intact soil column 10 cm …

A correct statistical model of soil pore structure can be critical for understanding flow and
transport processes in soils, and creating synthetic soil pore spaces for hypothetical and …

Despite the critical importance of roots within soils for supporting plant growth, the
assessment of root distribution in soils remains difficult and much is unknown regarding their …
