Abstract:
Large-scale, 3- to 6-m diameter infiltration tests provide realistic data for determining soil infiltration rates. Tensiometers can be used to monitor the relative degree of saturation during the test. At Apple Valley, Minnesota, the saturated infiltration rate is moderately rapid, at Clarence Cannon Dam, Missouri, the rates range from moderate to slow, and at Deer Creek Lake, Ohio, from moderately slow to slow.
