Capillary rise quantifications based on in-situ artificial deuterium peak displacement and laboratory soil characterization

In arid environments, water rises from the saturated level of a shallow aquifer to the drying soil surface where evaporation occurs. This process plays important roles in terms of plant survival, salt balance and aquifer budget. A new field quantification method of this capillary rise flow is propos...
