Percolation in macropores and performance of large time-domain reflectometry sensors

The large-diameter time-domain reflectometry soil water sensors placed horizontally in a structured loamy soil are very sensitive to rapid preferential percolation events. Their readings on these occasions rise considerably, often becoming higher than the native soil's porosity. The effect is c...
