Richards Equation

Richards Equation is a partial differential equation in porous media flow theory that describes the movement of water in unsaturated soils by extending Darcy's law to account for capillary and gravitational forces, thereby distinguishing it from saturated flow models through its dependence on soil moisture content and pressure head.
