The knowledge of the composition and fluxes of vadose zone water is essential for a wide
range of scientific and practical fields, including water‐use management, pesticide …

Core Ideas Soil solution sampling is essential to better understand water and solute
movement in soils. A review of different types of soil solution samplers is provided in this …

Understanding groundwater recharge is essential for successful management of water
resources and modeling fluid and contaminant transport within the subsurface. This book …

Tracers in Hydrology and Water Research is a comprehensive overview of the application of
natural and artificial tracers in hydrology and environmental research. Taking a unique …

This book is aimed at providing engineers, designers and regulators with the basic
principles behind selecting and designing water balance covers for waste containment. It …

Exact information about soil water flow is needed to quantify solute transfer within the
unsaturated zone. Water flux densities are often measured indirectly, eg, with water …

Preferential flow in agricultural soils has been demonstrated to result in agrochemical
mobilisation to shallow ground water. Land managers and environmental regulators need …

Optimization of water use in agriculture and quantification of percolation from landfills and
watersheds require reliable estimates of vadose zone water fluxes. Current technology is …

Quantification of soil water flow is a prerequisite to accurate prediction of solute transfer
within the unsaturated zone. The monitoring of these fluxes is challenging because the …

Very little is known about dissolved organic matter (DOM) originating from fine roots in forest
soils in comparison to DOM originating from leaf litter. To compare the fate of root‐vs. leaf …
