Theories and models used in soil hydrological sciences rely on the knowledge of the
spatially and temporally variable soil hydraulic properties, ie the water retention and …

Tills dominate large parts of the superficial sediments on the Northern hemisphere. These
glacial diamictons are extremely heterogeneous and riddled with fractures and lenses of …

Stormwater infiltration systems (SIS) have been built in urban areas to reduce the
environmental impacts of stormwater runoff. Infiltration basins allow the transfer of …

With urbanization, the permeable soil surface area through which recharge by infiltration can
occur is reducing. This is resulting in much less ground-water recharge and greatly …

The sealing of surfaces in urban areas makes storm water management compulsory. The
suspended solids from surface runoff water accumulate in infiltration basins and may impact …

The objective of this paper was to identify the incidence and extent of preferential flow at two
experimental areas located in Lyon, France. We used time-lapse ground-penetrating radar …

This study presents the use of geophysical methods as a preliminary step in the
characterization of urban fills, namely for the assessment of the spatial variability of their …

Soil water repellency can substantially alter hydrologic processes, particularly the ability of
soils to infiltrate water. Water repellency often changes through time, making it difficult to …

Stormwater infiltration systems (SIS) are designed to collect and infiltrate urban stormwater
runoff into the ground for flood risk mitigation and artificial aquifer recharge. Many studies …

Decreases in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and dissolved oxygen (DO) with increasing
depth below the groundwater table are often considered as evidence for aerobic respiration; …
