Soil water repellency along elevation gradients: The role of climate, land use and soil chemistry

The rate of water infiltration, surface runoff, and overland flow are all affected by soil water repellency (SWR), i.e., the reduced affinity for water caused by hydrophobic coatings on soil particles. SWR impacts water balance, which in turn affects ecosystem’s function and watersheds hydrology, bu...
