Dependency of soil moisture distributions and gravity changes on saturated diffusivity, Ds.For Ds equal to (1) 1.0 × 10−7, (2) 3.0 × 10−7, (3) 1.0 × 10−6 (default value: thick line), (4) 3.0 × 10−6, (5) 1.0 × 10−5 [m2/s]. (a) Steady-state soil moisture profile with p = 1.0, θs(Z; p = 1). (b) Time variation of soil moisture at 50 cm below the ground surface with p = 1.0, θ(zs − 0.5 t; p = 1). (c) Gravity changes due to soil moisture distribution, gw(t).
