World-renowned soil physicist, Dr. Gaylon S. Campbell, teaches the basics of soil infiltration, how to measure it correctly, and compares common measurement methods. Make the right decisions Soil infiltration impacts almost everything soils are used for. Infiltration rates impact irrigation, drainage, and how well water flows to crop roots. Infiltration measurements are used to predict erosion and determine soil health. And, in urban settings, stormwater systems and landfills need soil infiltration measurements to maximize or minimize water movement in soil. If you’re working in these situations, it’s critical to understand how to measure infiltration correctly, or you’ll risk inaccurate calculations that could lead to wrong decisions. Master the basics In this 30-minute webinar, world-renowned soil physicist, Dr. Gaylon S. Campbell, teaches the basics of soil infiltration and how to measure it correctly. Learn: - What is soil hydraulic conductivity? - How does soil infiltration vary from one porous medium to another? - What determines hydraulic conductivity? - Why you should care about the infiltration rate of water into soil - How to measure soil infiltration in the lab and the field - How different measurement methods compare
