TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS AT A WETTING FRONT AND AN APPLICATION OF THE THEORY OF RATE PROCESSES TO WATER FLOW IN SOILS

Abstract

Several experiments to determine the apparent activation energies of several processes contributing to water movement in soils and to develop a theory of soil water movement in terms of the molecular physics of the several contributing processes are reported.
