The Green and Ampt Infiltration Model Accounting for Air Compression and Air Counterflow in the Shallow Water Table Environment: Laboratory Experiments

Water infiltration into the unsaturated zone especially in a shallow water table environment is affected by air compression ahead of the wetting front and air counterflow. Neglecting air compression in infiltration modeling can overestimate infiltration and infiltration rates, whereas not accounting...
