@metergroup.comHow many infiltration measurements are enough to represent a rain garden? Drs. Andrea Welker and Kristin Sample-Lord examine spatial variability, sampling decisions, and the tradeoffs among field methods.
@metergroup.comHow do SATURO and double-ring infiltrometer readings compare? The methods generally agreed across many soil conditions, but large structural macropores and installation disturbance created important differences.
@metergroup.comSample preparation, air entry, soil depth, uncertainty, and cracks can all raise questions when measuring hydraulic conductivity or interpreting SMRCs. Leo Rivera and Shaun Weldon discuss them in Office Hours 20.

@metergroup.comNo single hydraulic conductivity method fits every measurement question. Compare field and lab approaches for saturated, field-saturated, and unsaturated conditions, and review the tradeoffs of common methods.
