Water repellent soils: the case for unsaturated soil mechanics
Water repellent (or “hydrophobic” or “non-wetting”) soils have been studied by soil scientists for well over a century. These soils are typified by poor water infiltration, which leads to increased soil erosion and poor crop growth. However, the importance of water repellence on determining soil pro...
