"What is infiltration capacity?", "The maximum rate at which water is absorbed into the ground (vadose zone) as precipitation falls on the slope surface. Measured like precipitation (mm/hr)." "What does infiltration capacity depend on?", "The three physical processes of absorption, storage in pore spaces, and transmission of water downward." "What is infiltration capacity a function of in the field?", "- Soil texture and structure<br /> - Soil (regolith) thickness and slope<br /> - Vegetation - rooting depth and structure<br /> - Antecedence or prior conditions (climatic conditions)"
