FIELD OBSERVATIONS OF A CAPILLARY FRINGE BEFORE AND AFTER A RAINY SEASON

Observations on unsaturated soil. Saturation and gravimetric water content are obtained from boreholes with geoprobe sampling technique.analysis of vertical profiles. Discussion on particle size distribution and their influence on the structure of capillary fringe. Comparison of water content before and after a rainy period. Schematic representation of the saturated-unsaturated interface region.
