Kerr, H., Johnson, K., Toll, D. G., & Mansfield, F. (2016, August). Flood Holding Capacity: A Novel Concept to Evaluate the Resilience of Amended Soils. Presented at Geo-Chicago 2016, Chicago, Illinois, USA

The term water holding capacity (WHC) has long been used to help researchers determine how soils respond to typical wetting under rainfall. However the term WHC is insufficient as a measurement to describe how soil responds to flooding events. This p...
