How wet is the unsaturated zone?
How does moisture content and water potential vary as you go down in the unsaturated zone? And what is the vadose zone, anyway? Continue reading
Measuring evapotranspiration components
Evapotranspiration is often said to be the most difficult water balance component to directly measure. When water goes from liquid to vapor, you can’t exactly catch it in a bucket or measure flow in a channel. In my Watershed Hydrology … Continue reading
