New publication: "Identifying preferential flow from soil moisture time series: Review of methodologies" in Vadose Zone Journal.

We synthesized the methods to identify preferential flow of soil water based on soil moisture observations. 🧵

Identifying preferential flow from soil moisture time series: Review of methodologies
Soil moisture data can be used to identify the occurrence of preferential flow (PF) and its initiating conditions. Various data-analysis methods to identify PF differ in susceptibility to error, bia...
