Spatial variability in unsaturated flow beneath playa and adjacent interplaya settings and implications for contaminant transport, southern High Plains, Texas Spatial variability in unsaturated flow beneath playa and adjacent interplaya settings and implications for contaminant transport, southern High Plains, Texas 1997

Analysis of spatial variability in unsaturated flow is critical to evaluating contaminant transport in areas of focused or preferential flow. This study examined spatial variability at a variety of scales from focused flow through playas to preferential flow in macropores.

Relationship between arid geomorphic settings and unsaturated zone flow:  case study, Chihuahuan desert, Texas Relationship between arid geomorphic settings and unsaturated zone flow: case study, Chihuahuan desert, Texas 2000

Because geomorphic features can readily be mapped, our ability to characterize unsaturated flow over large areas would be greatly enhanced if relationships between geomorphic settings and unsaturated flow could be identified.
