Saturation Excess Flow

Saturation Excess Flow is a type of hydrological runoff process in which surface water accumulation occurs when precipitation or meltwater input exceeds the capacity of the soil profile to transmit water, causing the water table to rise to the surface and generate flow over saturated areas, distinguished from infiltration-excess overland flow by its dependence on subsurface saturation dynamics rather than surface infiltration limits.
