Description :
This paper has two main objectives: to analyse the relations between rock fragment parameters (ground cover, position, size) and sealing for a large range of soils of West Africa which is a region where soils containing rock fragments commonly occur; to develop simple predicting models of infiltration and to test them with field data.
