Fig. 2. Degree of saturation in macropores simulated by MACRO and given by the analytical solution (Germann, 1985). Two cases are shown: (i) 24-h pulse at 1-m depth and (ii) 3-h pulse at 0.5 m depth. Ima = 2 mm h–1, Ks(ma) = 10 mm h–1, {theta}ma = 0.1 m3 m–3, {theta}mi = {theta}b = 0.4 m3 m–3, n* = 2 for both cases.
