A Lagrangian model for soil water dynamics during rainfall-driven conditions

Within this study we propose a stochastic approach to simulate soil water dynamics in the unsaturated zone by using a non-linear, space domain random walk of water particles. Soil water is represented by particles of constant mass, which travel according to the Itô form of the Fokker–Planck equation...
