Vadose Zone Processes provides a unified and an up-to-date treatment on the movement of water through unsaturated media. In addition to covering the basic equations governing the flow and fate of water in unsaturated media, the author emphasizes maintaining an intuitive understanding of how the results are derived and how they are appropriately applied. This book will be useful not only to those in traditional fields such as crop science, chemical engineering, agricultural engineering, and hydrology but also in the newer environmental engineering fields including containment transport, pollution remediation, and waste disposal.
