Question:

A sandy loam has initial moisture content of 0.18, hydraulic conductivity of 7.8 mm/hr, and average capillary suction of 100 mm. Rain falls at 2.9 cm/hr, and the final moisture content is measured to be 0.45. When does surface saturation occur? Plot the infiltration rate vs. the infiltration volume, using the Green and Ampt method of infiltration.
