Description :
This article explores further the nature of seal development in relation to rainfall intensity. It reports the results of a new study using direct, improved measurements of pressure potential and infiltration on carefully prepared soil columns of two soils initially with a table flat surface. The approach taken is to evaluate the effect of sequential changes in intensity during a rainstorm on seal development.
