Capillary Fringe Dynamics

Capillary Fringe Dynamics is a hydrological process model that characterizes the capillary fringe as a saturated zone extending above the water table due to capillary forces, distinguishing it from adjacent saturated and unsaturated zone dynamics by its dependence on pore-scale interactions and moisture retention gradients in riparian aquifers.
