Excerpt

Summary While Green–Ampt model has been widely used in infiltration calculations through unsaturated soils, upscaling this model for applications in heterogeneous formations remains difficult. In this study, how to upscale soil parameters in the Green–Ampt model for vertically layered soils is examined. The main idea of upscaled effective parameters is to capture infiltration behavior in layered soil formations using only one set of parameters derived from the parameters of individual layers, such that the layered system can be …
