A large number of studies over the past four decades have demonstrated the ubiquity of
preferential flow in diverse soils. Because of its significant impacts on ecosystem services …

Soil water repellency (SWR) is a widespread phenomenon that influences patterns of soil
wetting, runoff, evapotranspiration and availability of water for plants. In natural ecosystems …

Soil moisture is a key control on runoff generation and biogeochemical processes on
hillslopes. Precipitation events can evoke different soil moisture responses with depth …

Preferential flow, a major influence in unsaturated soil and rock almost everywhere, occurs
by multiple phenomenologically distinct hydraulic processes. For the mode known as …

The highly dynamic nature of preferential flow in time and space makes it challenging to
identify and analyze its occurrence at the catchment scale. Novel analysis methods using …

Abstract The Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) is a unique Critical Zone with deep loess
deposits, where soil moisture is primarily replenished by seasonal monsoon rainfall …

The spatial and temporal controls of preferential flow (PF) during infiltration are still not fully
understood. As soil moisture sensor networks allow us to capture infiltration responses in …

Understanding the dynamic response of soil moisture to rainfall is critical for hydrological
modelling in arid and semi-arid basins. However, little is known about rainfall-related soil …

大孔隙流方面的研究是土壤水运动机理由均质走向非均质领域的标志而成为土壤物理学学目前
的研究热点, 研究成果对评估土壤污染物风险, 确定灌溉, 施肥, 以及种植作物方案等提供理论 …

Insight into the rainfall‐soil moisture (SM) response to land cover is critical for soil
hydrological process modelling and management. In this study, five typical land‐cover types …
