Soil permeability
Soil permeability
January 30, 2025Soil permeability refers to how easily water moves through soil. It is expressed using the permeability coefficient (k), which measures the rate at which water flows through a given soil area under a specific pressure gradient. Permeability is influenced by factors such as fluid properties, temperature, soil particle size, void ratio, and soil composition. According […]
