2 The one-dimensional convection-dispersion equation is often used to estimate the risk of non-

5 present a database of dispersivities that were derived from leaching studies in soils. Besides
7 distance, scale of the experiment, flow rate, boundary conditions, soil texture, pore water
8 velocity, transport velocity, and measurement method. Dispersivities increase with increasing
9 transport distance and scale of the experiment. Considerably larger dispersivities were
10 observed for saturated than for unsaturated flow conditions. No significant effect of soil
11 texture on dispersivity was observed but interactive effects of soil texture, lateral scale of the
12 experiment, and flow rate on dispersivity were significant. In coarse textured soils, lateral
13 water redistribution may take place over larger distances, which explains the larger
14 dependency of dispersivity on lateral scale of the experiment in coarse than in finer textured
15 soils. The activation of large interaggregate pores may explain the increase in dispersivity
16 with increasing flow rate in finer textured soils, which was not observed in soils with a
17 coarser texture. The distribution of dispersivities is positively skewed and better described by

1 Introduction
2 Models that calculated chemical transport in soils are more and more being used in practice.
3 Risk assessment on the basis of model calculations of leaching of surface applied chemicals
5 becomes more and more legally prescribed. Examples are the FOCUS groundwater scenarios
6 (FOCUS, 2000) which must be used in the European pesticide registration procedure to
7 estimate the risk of groundwater contamination by surface applied pesticides. The reliability
8 of these model calculations depends on the accuracy with which relevant processes for
10 transport in that occurs in the water phase. Reviews of different model approaches to describe
11 transport of dissolved substances are given by Feyen et al. (1998); Jury and Flühler (1992);
12 Nielsen et al. (1986), Vanclooster et al. (2005). Besides an appropriate model choice, also the
13 parameterization of the model plays an important role. To parameterize the water flow model,
14 databases of soil hydraulic parameters, e.g., HYPRES database (Wösten et al., 1999), the
15 UNSODA database (Nemes et al., 2001) and pedotransfer functions relating soil hydraulic
16 with spatialized information about other soil properties have been derived (Schaap et al.,
17 1998; Vereecken et al., 1990; Vereecken et al., 1989). Using pedotransfer functions in
18 combination with soil databases, hydraulic properties and model predictions can be
19 spatialized as well as soil management, and soil and groundwater protection policies. An
20 example of combining modeling of pesticide leaching with spatialized information about soil
21 properties and land use to derive spatial distributions of pesticide groundwater concentrations
22 is given by Tiktak et al. (2004). In their study, hydraulic properties and soil properties that are
23 related to pesticide sorption and decay (organic carbon content and soil pH) were spatialized
24 whereas transport parameters were chosen to be constant. Boesten (2004) showed that the
26 applied solute pulse that leaches through the soil, has an important impact on predicted yearly
3
1 averaged pesticide concentration, especially for substances with a low leaching potential.
2 However, datasets of transport parameters such as those existing for hydraulic parameters are
3 missing. Gelhar et al. (1992) reviewed dispersivities derived from groundwater tracer studies
4 and found a scale dependency of the dispersivity, which increases with increasing transport
5 distance. Since the transport distance in groundwater tracer studies is much larger than the
7 groundwater tracer studies can be applied to soils. Furthermore, the structural properties of
8 soils and aquifers are substantially different. In soils, flow and transport are perpendicular to
9 the layering whereas in aquifers, they are mostly aligned with stratification. The origin of
11 mostly the result of a sedimentation process whereas in soils it results from leaching and
12 precipitation processes. Finally, flow and transport processes in aquifers occur under saturated
13 and more or less steady flow conditions. In soils, flow and transport are highly dynamic
14 processes that change in magnitude and direction due to the continuously changing boundary
15 conditions. Also the water content and the pore volume in which transport takes places
18 The objective of this study is to give an overview of transport properties, more specifically the
19 dispersivity, that were derived from tracer studies in soils. We focus on the dispersivity since
20 the convection dispersion model is the most widely used model to predict transport in soils
21 and to interpret tracer experiments, especially those tracer experiments that were carried out
22 under natural boundary conditions at the field plot scale and in undisturbed soil (which are
23 most relevant for practical applications). Beven et al. (1993) made a review of tracer
24 experiments and dispersivities in soils. However, the number of studies, especially the
25 number of field scale studies that could be reviewed at that time was relatively small.
4
1 parameters (van Genuchten and Wierenga, 1976), were restricted to experiments that were
2 carried out in relatively small soil columns, which were often filled with disturbed soil or
3 artificial media such as glass beads, and which were carried out under high flow rates
5 In this review, we first define the dispersivity and how it is derived from leaching
7 in soils. Specific objectives of this paper are to provide, on the basis of available data in
9 • What is the range of dispersivities observed in leaching experiments and how are they
10 distributed?

15 This information is needed for a realistic parameterisation of dispersivity and its uncertainty
16 in modelling studies.

18 Definition of Dispersivity
19 Flow in the vadose zone is generally in the vertical direction. A common simplification is that
20 of one-dimensional (1-D) transport, i.e., solute fluxes and concentration gradients in the
21 horizontal direction are neglected. This assumption follows from the generally widespread
22 application of chemicals or pollutants at the soil surface, i.e., diffuse, or non-point source,

12 molecular collision, the latter represents the effect of variations of the advection velocity that
13 exist at a smaller scale than the scale of the averaging volume. The hydrodynamic dispersion

2 Derivation of Dispersivity
3 Dispersivities are typically derived either from observed depth profiles of inert tracer
4 concentrations or from breakthrough curves (BTC) of tracer concentrations that are measured
5 in the effluent of columns or that are measured in a soil profile using solution samplers or
6 other devices suchs as time domain reflectometry (TDR) probes that monitor solute
7 concentrations. In general, the hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient, D, and the pore water
8 velocity v are derived from these profiles assuming that v and D are constant in the soil profile
9 and do not change with depth and time, i.e. a hydrodynamically homogeneous soil profile and
10 steady state flow conditions. For such situations, analytical solutions of the transport equation
11 can be derived and fitted to the observed depth profiles or BTCs. An overview of analytical
12 solutions of the 1-D CDE is given in Toride et al. (1999). Alternatively, time moments of
13 BTCs or depth moments of concentration depth profiles may be calculated and used to derive
14 the dispersion coefficient and pore water velocity (Jacques et al., 1998; Jury and Sposito,
15 1985; Jury and Roth, 1990; Russo, 2002). The calculation of time or depth moments does not
16 require the specification of a process model. Time moments can also be related to parameters
17 of other models which were fitted to breakthrough curves, e.g. the mobile-immobile model
18 (Valocchi, 1985), the convective lognormal transfer function model (Jury and Sposito, 1985)
19 or a stream tube model which accounts for dispersion within stream tubes (Toride and Leij,
20 1996). From time moments that are calculated from parameters of other models an apparent
21 dispersivity can be derived using the relation between the time moments of a BTC and
22 dispersivity. In some field-scale transport experiments, a salt tracer was applied on a large
23 surface and for a given depth in the soil profile, breakthrough curves were measured locally at
24 several locations (Biggar and Nielsen, 1976; Bowman and Rice, 1986; Vandepol et al., 1977).
25 The solution of a 1-D CDE was fitted to the locally measured BTCs and distributions of
7
1 ‘local’ CDE parameters, pore water velocities and ‘local’ dispersivities, λ(local) were derived.
2 Using time moment analysis, the apparent dispersivity of the field scale averaged
3 breakthrough curve, λ(field) can be derived from the distribution of the ‘local’ CDE parameters
8 where <λ(local)> is the arithmetic average of the local dispersivities and σ ln2 v is the variance of
10
11 The analytical solutions of the convection dispersion equation apply for constant flow rates.
12 When the flow rate is not constant, the time coordinate is often transformed to a cumulative
14
t
15 I (t ) = ∫ Jw( z , t ')dt ' [4]
0
16
17 where Jw(z,t) is the water flux at depth z and time t. This transformation leads to a similarly
18 smooth course of concentrations as under steady state flow conditions and the analytical
19 solution of the steady-state CDE, in which the time coordinate is replaced by I(t), is fitted
20 against the measured concentrations. The transformation in Eq. [4] involves a transformation
21 of the dimensions of the fitted parameters, v(I) and D(I). The fitted velocity, v(I) has dimension
22 L L-1 and represents the distance over which the substance is leached per unit of leached water
23 depth so that v ( I ) = θ −1 . The dispersivity λ(I) has the same dimension as the dispersivity
24 obtained under steady state flow conditions. λ(I) is in general larger than λ (Beese and
8
1 Wierenga, 1980; Vanderborght et al., 2000b; Wierenga, 1977) depending on the temporal
2 fluctuations of the water content during the leaching experiment. Beese and Wierenga (1980)
3 report that λ(I) may be a factor 3 larger than λ in the top soil where the dynamics of the water
4 flux and water content are large. The difference between λ(I) and λ decreases with increasing
5 depth and for smaller fluctuations of the water content (Vanderborght et al., 2000b).
6 For soil profiles with variable water content with depth, the following depth transform has
z
9 z * (z ) = ∫ θ ( z ')dz ' [5]
0
10
11 When depth is transformed by Eq. [5], the pore water velocity v(z*) corresponds with the water
12 flux Jw and the dispersivity λ(z*) is expressed in terms of transformed length units. Although a
13 theoretical basis for the use of the depth transform in Eq. [5] is basically missing,
14 breakthrough curves in soil profiles with vertically varying soil water contents were often
15 fitted by a solution of the CDE in a homogeneous soil profile after replacing the real depth

5 According to Eq. [7], a vertical variability of water contents leads to larger apparent
6 dispersivities. Since CV(θ) is generally smaller than one, the direct effect of vertical
7 variability of the water content on λ(z) is not so large. However, λ in Eq. [7] is assumed to be a
8 material constant that does not depend on θ neither varies with depth so that the apparent
9 dispersivity λ(z) also changes with depth when λ changes with θ or depth (indirect effect of θ
10 on λ(z)).

15 soil structure has an important impact on solute transport, only experiments in undisturbed

1 Effects of experimental conditions: flow rate, scale of the
4 Scale of the study, flow boundary condition type, and soil texture are considered to be
5 important experimental factors influencing the solute dispersion. In Figure 1, Figure 2, and
6 Figure 3, the number of data entries in different factor classes are shown together with the
7 mean dispersivity, mean flow rate, and mean transport distance in the factor classes.
8 With increasing scale of the leaching experiment, the average transport distance increases
9 whereas the flow rate decreases (Figure 1). The effect of the experimental scale on the
10 dispersivity length can therefore not be derived without considering the effects of flow rate
11 and transport distance on the dispersivity length. About two thirds of all dispersivities were
12 derived from leaching experiments carried out under steady-state flow conditions (Figure 2).
13 Although the mean flow rate in experiments carried out under continuous and intermittent
14 flooding boundary conditions is quite different, the mean dispersivities in these classes are
15 similar and much larger than in the other boundary condition classes. The mean dispersivity
16 was the smallest in experiments that were carried out under steady-state unsaturated flow
17 conditions whereas the mean flow rate was the second largest in these experiments. The
18 degree of saturation of the soil surface, i.e. continuously or periodically saturated (ponded)
19 versus unsaturated, seems to have a larger impact on the dispersivity than the mean flow rate
20 during the experiment. The larger dispersivities observed in leaching experiments with
21 saturated soil surface conditions clearly reflect the effect of flow and transport through larger
22 pores, i.e. macropores, which are activated under saturated conditions. Looking at the
23 combination between soil texture and flow boundary condition class (Figure 3), it is
24 remarkable that in clayey soils (c, sic, sc, cl, sicl, and scl) most experiments were carried out
25 under saturated flow conditions. Experiments under climatic boundary conditions were
13
1 mainly carried out in coarser textured soils. This correlation between boundary condition and
2 soil texture needs to be considered when effects of soil texture and boundary condition on the
4 For further analysis, all experiments carried out under flooding and intermittent flooding
5 boundary conditions were grouped in a separate class. For the other group of experiments, the
6 soil texture classes were grouped into two texture classes: a ‘coarse’ texture class that lumps
7 the sand, loamy sand and sandy loam classes and a ‘fine’ texture class lumping the other
8 texture classes. Experiments that were carried out soils with a large stone content (texture
9 classes sg and silg) were excluded because they were not considered to be relevant for
10 agricultural use.
11
12 Although flow rate, Jw, and transport distance are continuous variables, their effect on the
13 dispersivity length was investigated through flow rate and transport distance classes. If
14 available, the effective flow rate, Jweff, rather than the time averaged flow rate was considered.
15 For transient flow conditions, the flow rate intensity in the soil column, which is quantified by
16 Jweff, was shown to be better correlated to the dispersivity than the time averaged flow rate
17 (Vanderborght et al., 2000a). Four flow rate classes were defined: flow rates smaller than 1
18 cm d-1, between 1 cm d-1 and 10 cm d-1, and larger than 10 cm d-1, and experiments carried out
19 under flooding and intermittent flooding boundary conditions. Most of the experiments that
20 were carried out under climatic conditions or climatic conditions with intermittent irrigation
21 fell into the flow class with flow rates smaller than 1 cm/d. Exceptions were studies in which
22 a large amount of water was infiltrated during a short time (rainfall events of more than 10 cm
23 d-1). These studies fell into the class with flow rates larger than 10 cm d-1.
24 For the transport distances, three classes were defined: studies with a transport distance
25 smaller than or equal to 30 cm, between 31 cm and 80 cm and between 81 and 200 cm. The
26 first class contains all soil core scale experiments and is relevant for the transport through the
14
1 upper soil layer or plough layer. In order to give the same weight to experiments in which
2 dispersivities were determined for several travel distances (e.g in a soil column or a field
3 plot), the data entries in a travel distance class that correspond to the same experiment or
5 In Figure 4, the distribution of dispersivities in different flow rate and experimental scale
6 classes are shown for the different transport distance classes. Dispersivities derived from
7 experiments that were carried out using a flooding boundary condition were consistently
8 larger than dispersivities that were derived from other experiments. For the 0-30 cm travel
9 distance class, there is a clear increase of dispersivity length with increasing flow rate in the
10 core and column scale experiments. This increase is not or not so clearly seen in field-scale
12 Most leaching studies were carried out using artificial leaching rates. In order to reduce the
13 duration of the leaching experiment, the average flow rate in leaching experiments is mostly
14 considerably larger than under natural boundary conditions. For instance, a leaching
15 experiment carried out with a flow rate of 10 cm d-1 would correspond with a yearly
16 precipitation of 36500 mm, which is one to two orders of magnitude larger than the yearly
17 precipitation amount. On the other hand, rainfall and soil water flow are highly dynamic
18 processes with high rainfall or flow intensities occurring during only a short period of time
19 and with long intermittent periods without rainfall or significant downward flow. Therefore,
20 close to the soil surface vertical movement occurs during relatively short pulses with a high
21 flow rate. These high flow rates become sensibly buffered with depth, depending on the
22 hydraulic buffer capacity of the soil. From rainfall intensity records, the amount of rain that
23 falls with intensities smaller or larger than a certain threshold can be derived. As an example,
24 in Jülich (Germany), 10% of the total yearly precipitation occurs with an intensity larger than
25 13.2 cm d-1 whereas halve of the total yearly precipitation occurs with an intensity larger than
26 3.6 cm d-1. In that perspective, leaching experiments in the flow rate class 1 cm d-1 < Jw < 10
15
1 cm d-1 may also be considered realistic. Because flow rates larger than 10 cm d-1 were not
2 considered to be realistic for natural boundary conditions, dispersivities from this flow rate
3 class were excluded from further analyses. However, since the dispersivities in the 10 cm d-1
4 < Jw class were, except for the core and column scale experiments and travel distances smaller
5 than 30 cm, not very different from dispersivity distributions in other flow rate classes (Figure
6 4), their exclusion does not influence the results of the further analyses considerably.
7 The effect of experimental scale and travel distance on dispersivities derived from
8 experiments with a flow rate smaller than 10 cm d-1 is shown in Figure 5. Both the transport
9 distance and the lateral scale of transport experiment have an impact on the dispersivity.
10 Generally, dispersivity increases when the lateral scale of the experiment increases.
11 Therefore, field scale experiments are expected to be more representative for the dispersion
12 process under real conditions than experiments in soil columns or lysimeters that reduce
13 lateral redistribution of water flow, and hence the dispersion process. However, the difference
14 between field and column scale experiments is smaller for larger travel distances where the
15 two distributions tend to converge. Furthermore, solute fluxes can be measured in a column
16 experiment but not in a field experiment. In field experiments, concentrations are measured
17 locally at a number of points and the actually sampled area is only a small fraction of the total
18 cross sectional area of the field plot and may be even smaller than the area of a soil column or
19 lysimeter.
20 Looking at the effect of the transport distance on the dispersivity, the column scale
21 experiments clearly show an increase of dispersivity with transport distance. For the field
22 scale experiments, the dispersivity distribution in the 0-30 cm travel distance class is similar
23 to that in the 31-80 cm class. The larger dispersivities in the 0-30 cm transport distance class
24 for the field scale experiments may also be the result of transient flow conditions at the soil
25 surface and the transformation of the time coordinate to a cumulative infiltration or drainage
26 coordinate (Eq. [4]) that is often used to transform BTCs before fitting the solution of the
16
1 steady-state CDE. The increase of dispersivity with increasing travel distance in soils is in
2 line with a generally observed trend that was reported for dispersivities derived from
3 groundwater tracer studies (Gelhar et al., 1992). From those data, a rule of thumb that the
4 dispersivity length is approximately 1/10 of the travel distance was inferred. Applying this
5 rule of thumb to soil data, the median dispersivity would be overestimated. Considering the
6 large difference between the travel distances of the tracer experiments on the basis of which
7 this rule was derived and the transport distances in soils, this rule of thumb seems to be a
8 quite universal and applicable to obtain a rough estimate of dispersivities in soil. In Figure 6,
9 median values of dispersivities in the different experimental scale classes are plotted versus
10 the median value of the transport distance in the distance classes together with linear and
11 power law model fits. The plot suggests that the rate of increase of dispersivity with travel
12 distance is larger for smaller than for larger travel distances. The rate of increase of the
13 median dispersivities between the first and second and between the second and third travel
14 distance classes is similar. A constant rate of increase of dispersivity with travel distance can
16 correlated with travel distance. When the spatial scale over which particles travel with a
17 constant velocity is smaller than the transport distance, the rate of increase of the dispersivity
18 decreases with travel distance and the dispersivity reaches an asymptotic value (e.g., Jury and
19 Roth, 1990). Figure 6 suggest that, in general, the asymptotic regime is not reached within the
20 first meter of the soil profile. This means that regions with higher or lower water fluxes and
21 particle velocities are vertically continuous over a distance of at least a few decimeter in soils.
22 However, several examples of soil profiles in which the dispersivity reaches an asymptotic
23 value exist so that this statement cannot be applied to each individual soil profile. When the
24 increase of the dispersivity with travel distance is explained by particle velocities that remain
25 constant along their trajectory, it is presumed that the variance of the particle velocities does
26 not change with depth in the soil profile. The increase of λ with travel distance could
17
1 alternatively be explained by an increase of the particle velocity variance with depth whereas
2 the particle velocities are correlated only over a microscopic distance. It may be presumed
3 that the top soil is more homogenized due to tillage than the subsoil soil so that the variance
4 of the particle velocities is smaller in the top than in the sub soil. However, there are two
5 arguments against using only this hypothesis to explain the increase of λ with travel distance.
6 An indirect argument is the increase of dispersivity with lateral scale of the experiment. This
7 implies that velocity variations exist on a macroscopic lateral scale and therefore must extend
8 over a macroscopic vertical distance. The second argument is that dispersivities are not larger
9 in soil cores from deeper soil horizons than in cores from the top soil (Figure 7).
10
12 The effect of the flow rate class on dispersivities in the coarse and fine texture soil classes is
13 shown in Figure 8. In both soil texture classes, dispersivities are larger for saturated than for
14 unsaturated flow conditions. It should be noted that the opposite was observed in leaching
15 experiments in repacked soil columns (e.g., De Smedt et al., 1986; Elrick and French, 1966;
16 Maraqa et al., 1997). For unsaturated flow experiments, dispersivity distributions do not
17 depend on flow rate class in soils with a coarser texture whereas dispersivities increase with
18 increasing flow rate in soils with a finer texture. In soils with a finer texture, the pores in the
19 soil matrix or the intra-aggregate pores are small so that the soil matrix has a low hydraulic
20 conductivity. When the leaching rate exceeds the conductivity of the intra-aggregate pores,
21 inter-aggregate pores, which are continuous over a much larger distance than the intra-
22 aggregate pores, are activated leading to an increase of the dispersivity with increasing flow
23 rate. In soils with a coarser texture, the pore sizes and hydraulic conductivity of the soil
24 matrix are much higher and more soil matrix pores are activated with increasing flow rate so
18
1 that the water filled pore network gets better connected and the tortuosity of the flow paths
2 decreases. This may even lead to a decrease of the dispersivity with increasing flow rate.
3 In the rest of the analysis, only data from unsaturated leaching experiments with a flow rate
4 smaller than 10 cm d-1 were considered. Figure 9 displays the effect of the transport distance
5 and texture on the dispersivity and Figure 10 the effect of the scale of the experiment and the
6 texture. In soils with a coarse texture, the dispersivity seems to be smaller than in soils with a
7 finer texture. In both soil classes, the dispersivity increases with travel distance. In finer
8 textured soils, the distributions of disperivities in column and field scale experiments are
9 similar whereas in coarser textured soils, larger dispersivities were observed in field than in
10 column scale experiments. This suggests that the lateral spatial scale of the transport
11 variability is smaller in finer textured soils than in coarser textured soils. In coarser textured
12 soils, lateral redistribution of water and funnelling of water towards ‘preferential flow
13 regions’ rather takes place in the soil matrix. This lateral redistribution may be strongly
14 reduced by imposing no-flow lateral boundary conditions. Solute spreading and dispersion
15 due to rapid transport in large inter-aggregate pores occurs on a smaller lateral scale which
16 may explain why no increase of dispersivity from the column to the field scale is observed in
18
20 The box-plots in Figure 5, and Figure 7-Figure 10 suggest that the dispersivities are
21 lognormally distributed (the box plots are symmetric around the median when the y-axis of
22 the plots are logarithmically scaled). In Figure 11, histograms of non- and loge transformed
23 dispersivity distributions in the different travel distance classes are shown. The histograms
24 qualitatively indicate that dispersivity lengths are lognormally distributed. The logarithmic
25 transformation also suggests that the large dispersivity values in the tails of the non-
19
1 transformed distributions should not be considered as outliers, i.e. observations with a
3 An analysis of variance ANOVA was carried out to investigate the significance of the
4 different factor effects and the part of the variance of the loge transformed dispersivity
5 distribution that can be explained by these factors. To reduce the number of factors and have a
6 sufficient number of observations within a factor combination, only the factors transport
7 distance, texture, and experimental scale were investigated. Experiments with a flow rate
8 smaller than 10 cm d-1 were considered and the effect of flow rate class was not further
9 investigated. Core scale experiments were excluded to avoid factor combinations without
10 data. Since the dataset was not balanced, the data were analyzed within the framework of
11 generalized linear models using the GLM procedure of the SAS® software. The outcome of
12 the ANOVA is shown in Table 1. The total variance of loge transformed dispersivities in the

17 large and unexplained. The factor explaining most of the variance is the transport distance.
18 Also the interaction between the scale of the experiment and the texture and the variability
19 explained by the scale of the experiment were significant (at 5% significance level). The
21
23 The effect of the measurement type is evaluated based on the ratio of the transport velocity
24 that is derived from the tracer movement, v, and the pore water velocity that is predicted from
20
1 the flow rate and the water content, vp. Deviation of the ratio v/vp from 1 is an indication that
2 the transport process is not well described by a model which presumes that solute transport
3 takes places in the entire water filled pore space or an indication that the observed solute
4 transport is not representative for the overall transport within the soil sample or field site.
5 The v/vp ratios are shown in Figure 12 for different measurement types and transport distance
6 classes and for saturated conditions or high flow rates (Jw > 10 cm d-1)(Figure 12 a) and
7 unsaturated flow conditions (Figure 12 b). The spreading of the v/vp ratios is the largest for
8 the soil solution samplers whereas direct measurement of the concentration breakthrough in
9 the effluent of a soil core/column leads to smallest variability in v/vp. The TDR technique and
10 soil coring method lead to an intermediate spreading of v/vp. The spreading v/vp can be related
11 to the soil volume that is actually sampled by the method. Soil samplers only sample the soil
12 water locally so that only a small fraction of the cross sectional is sampled, even when a large
13 number of samplers are used. As a consequence, the BTC obtained from averaging the local
14 measurements may deviate considerably from the averaged BTC of local concentrations or
15 solute fluxes at that depth (e.g., Weihermuller et al., 2005). Furthermore, suction samplers
16 distort the flow field to a certain extend which also leads to deviations of v estimated from
17 BTCs measured with suction samplers. The cross sectional area sampled by TDR probes and
18 the soil volume sampled by soil coring are larger which explains the smaller variability of v/vp
19 when these methods are used. If the concentration is measured directly in the effluent of a soil
20 core/column, then the entire cross-sectional area is sampled and the BTC is obviously
21 representative. However, also for the direct method, the variability of v/vp may be quite large,
22 e.g for the saturated conditions or high flow rates and small transport distances v/vp was found
24 preferential flow and an earlier arrival of the peak concentration than expected based on the
25 flow rate and the volumetric water content. If the total water filled porosity is accessible to the
21
1 long tailing of the breakthrough curve due to slow release of solutes from the bypassed pore
2 region. This tailing cannot be described by the CDE so that a CDE fit leads to an
3 overestimation of the average pore water velocity in the total solute accessible pore volume,
4 i.e. inclusive of the pore volume in which water flow is very slow. In the effluent of a soil
6 measured. By TDR and soil coring methods, volume averaged or resident concentrations are
7 measured. TDR measures time series of resident concentrations whereas concentration depth
8 profiles are derived from soil coring. For small travel distances, v derived from TDR
10 preferential flow occurs through a small part of the total pore volume, the early breakthrough
11 in the preferential flow region is hardly seen in volume averaged concentrations measured by
12 TDR. For larger travel distances and transport times, the opportunity for mixing and exchange
13 of solutes between preferential flow paths and bypassed regions increases and the deviation
14 between v and vp decreases. Another explanation for the smaller estimates of v is that solute
15 fluxes and pore water velocities are derived from a BTC of resident concentrations assuming
16 that the transport process can be predicted using a convective dispersion model with a
17 constant dispersivity. When dispersivity scales with travel distance, this approach leads to an
19
22 dispersivity in soils also scales with travel distance. Scaling of dispersivity with transport
23 distance implies that the transport distance in leaching experiments should be similar to the
24 range of transport distances for which predictions of solute concentrations must be made.
25 Scaling of dispersivity with transport distance could not be explained by an increase of the
22
1 soil heterogeneity in the subsoil, which is not regularly homogenized by soil tillage. This
2 implies that solute particle velocities are correlated over a macroscopic distance or that
3 regions with a higher, respectively lower transport velocity extend over a macroscopic vertical
4 distance. Dispersivities were always derived assuming a vertically homogeneous soil profile
5 with a constant or depth independent dispersivity. Therefore, dispersivities in this review are
7 soil profile. How to combine this vertically homogeneous equivalent soil profile, in terms of
8 the dispersion parameter, with vertical variations in soil biological and chemical properties
10 Since no general asymptotic regime was observed within the range of transport distances that
12 extrapolated to predict transport over larger distances in deep vadose zones. Information
13 about larger scale transport in the vadose zone is scarce and difficult to obtain because of the
15 Dispersivity also scales with lateral scale of the experiment. Considering that solute
16 dispersion is caused by spatial variations in local water velocities, that this spatial variability
17 is predominantly caused by spatial variations in soil water fluxes, which outweigh the effect
18 of soil water content variability, and that the soil water flux at the soil surface is rather
19 homogeneous, the lateral scale of the ‘representative’ volume is related to the distance over
20 which water can be laterally redistributed within the soil profile. However, this lateral scaling
21 of dispersivity and the scale over which water is laterally redistributed is related to soil
22 texture. In finer textured soils, similar distributions of dispersivities are derived from column
23 and field scale studies indicating that column scale studies may be representative for field
24 scale transport. For coarser textured soils, however, lateral redistribution may take place over
25 a larger distance so that field-scale dispersion is larger than the dispersion observed in column
26 scale studies. Therefore, column scale studies in coarser textured soils, which are for instance
23
1 carried out to evaluate the risk of pesticide leaching, may not be representative for field scale
2 dispersion and, since pesticide leaching is positively correlated with dispersion, underestimate
3 field scale pesticide leaching. Larger scale structures such as compacted areas under wheel
4 tracks alternated with homogenized seed beds (Coquet et al., 2005ab), sand lenses (Hammel
5 et al., 1999), soil horizons with spatially variable thickness (van Wesenbeeck and Kachanoski,
6 1994), or layers with different texture that extend over large distances (Kung, 1990) may also
7 play an important role and redistribute water over larger lateral distances. Lateral
8 redistribution of water at the soil surface and within the soil profile on sloping terrain may
9 lead to lateral variations in vertical infiltration or leaching. Finally, variability in plant water
10 up take on both local and larger scale may lead to an additional variability of vertical water
11 fluxes. Since most leaching experiments were carried out in bare soils, the effect of plants on
13 The fact that dispersion is caused by macroscopic variations of pore water velocities has also
14 important implications for the prediction of non-linear transport processes. Due to these
16 direction. If local processes (e.g. decay, sorption) depend in a non-linear way on the local
17 concentrations, then it is trivial that the lateral average of the local process cannot be
18 described by implementing the averaged concentration in the non-linear process model (e.g.,
20 Dispersivities seem to be larger in finer textured soils but the difference between
21 dispersivities in fine and coarse textured soils was not found to be significant. Besides the
22 interaction between lateral scale of the leaching experiment and soil texture, there is also an
23 interactive effect of soil texture and flow rate on dispersivity. In finer textured soils,
24 dispersivity increases with flow rate also for unsaturated flow conditions. In soils with a
25 coarser texture, dispersivity distributions were not found to be different for different flow rate
26 classes, except for the case that the soil surface was saturated.
24
1 Dispersivity distributions were better described by a lognormal than a normal distribution.
2 The lognormal shape of the distribution in combination with a relatively large variance
3 implies that large dispersivity values, i.e. much larger than the median value of the
5 However, a large part of the variance of the dispersivity distribution could not be explained by
6 the above mentioned parameters or factors. Since solute dispersion is a parameter that
7 quantifies the effect of the water velocity variability on transport, it should be related to soil
8 properties that entail information about this variability. In the field of stochastic continuum

11 2003). Unfortunately, obtaining information about the spatial variability of soil hydraulic

14 seems to be more within reach to improve the prediction of dispersivity and eventually
