Intake Rate: Cylinder Infiltrometer
Abstract
Cylinder infiltrometers are metal cylinders that are pushed or driven a small distance into the soil. The area inside the cylinder is flooded with water and the rate at which water moves into the ground is measured. When using infiltrometers to predict infiltration rates for a given system, one must be careful that the conditions of that system such as water quality, temperature, soil conditions, surface conditions are duplicated as much as possible with the infiltrometer so that the measurement is realistic. Infiltration of water into soil from surface inundations can be described by the Green-Ampt theory, which considers the infiltrated water to advance downward in the soil as piston flow. Double-cylinder infiltrometers could be effective only where there is a surface crust, an impeding layer on the surface, or other soil condition that makes it difficult to get a good bond between the undisturbed soil and the cylinder wall.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
