3 Despite strict definition, infiltration is really a 3-phase process: 1.Surface Entry 2.Transmission 3.Soil Storage Depletion

4 Volume of voids occupied by water ------------------------------------------- Total volume of soil 18 Minutes

5 Volume of voids occupied by water ------------------------------------------- Total volume of soil 159 Minutes
