Calibration of Selected Infiltration Equations for the Georgia Coastal Plain (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A practical look at how water infiltrates Coastal Plain soils, with guidance you can apply in planning and modeling.

This nonfiction study brings field data from the Georgia Coastal Plain into focus. It reports 11 soil types, 77 infiltration runs, and measurements of initial and final soil moisture, moisture tension, and soil profiles. The work compares multiple infiltration equations and identifies which best match infiltration-capacity behavior in these coastal soils. It also clarifies how rainfall rate and soil conditions influence infiltration, helping farmers, engineers, and planners make informed decisions.

- See how common models like Horton and Snyder perform on Coastal Plain soils
- Learn which equations fit early versus late stages of infiltration
- Understand how field data can calibrate equations for real-world use
- Get a grounded view of the study area and soil conditions that shape infiltration

Ideal for readers of applied hydrology, soil science, and land-use planning who want a grounded, data-driven perspective on infiltration modeling.
