Abstract

Measurements of water content profiles developed under constant-rate rainfall from a simulator are reported for two field locations. The observed field profiles prior to ponding agreed with those predicted by the theory of constant-flux infiltration. The predictions are based on field measurements of sorptivity and saturated hydraulic conductivity.
