Analysis of soil water movement inside a footslope and a depression in a karst catchment, Southwest China

Abstract Soil water movement is difficult to explain with event-scale approaches, especially in karst regions. This paper focuses on investigating seasonal recharge and mean residence time (MRT) of soil water based on temporal variation of stable isotopes (δD and δ18O) and a dispersion model (DM), a...
