Heitman’s soil E method Key concept #1: q = 0.01 is small relative to measurement error, but LE for q = 0.01 is big Key concept #2: LE in the soil is about E, not ET LE(evaporation from the soil) S(heating the soil) Soil Physics 2010
Sensible heat balance can be used to estimate the latent heat (LE) used for evaporation. <0 Condensation =0 No net change >0 Evaporation LE = (H1 – H2) –DS Upper sensible heat flux H1 LE Sensible heat storage DS Lower sensible heat flux H2 Soil Physics 2010

Solute Transport Flow Diffusion Convection Dispersion Soil Physics 2010
Steady-State Diffusion C1 C0 Under steady-state conditions we get a straight line, just as we did with Darcy’s law. just likeQ = -KiA L Soil Physics 2010
Transient diffusion For transient diffusion, we need to know the initial and boundary conditions. t0 Constant area under curve (constant mass) t1 Suppose we have Ci = 0 x > 0, t = 0 C0 = 1 x = 0, t = 0 Ci = 0 x = ∞, t > 0 C/C0 t2 t3 x Soil Physics 2010
Constant concentration C0 = 1 Ci = 0 Breakthrough C/C0 t So, what if we had Ci = 0 x > 0, t = 0 C0 = 1 x = 0, t≥ 0 Ci = 0 x = ∞, t > 0 Solute mass increases with time This is called a Breakthrough Curve Then at some distance x, we’d see Soil Physics 2010

t1 t0 t3 t2 Diffusion with Convection v Sir Geoffrey Taylor examined a “slug” of dye traveling in a tube of flowing water (early 1950s). The slug moved at the mean water velocity, and it spread out but remained symmetrical. This seemed remarkable to Taylor. Soil Physics 2010
Why was this remarkable? Taylor knew that water flowing through a tube has a parabolic velocity profile. Water in the center flows at twice the mean water velocity. The velocity profile is not symmetrical, but the dye slug was symmetrical. Soil Physics 2010
