An important criteria in Natural Flood Management (NFM) is understanding and
improving the surface soil permeability (or field, saturated hydraulic conductivity,
Kfs; Talsma, 1987) of natural ground surfaces with the view of increasing rainfall
infiltration and storage capacity (Marshall et al., 2009). At the local scale infiltrability
and soil hydraulic conductivity (Ks) are key soil properties as they activate surface
and near-surface flow paths that influence runoff generation (Elsenbeer,
2001; Bonell et al., 2010).
