Transfert en sol non saturé. Il est mis en évidence par la variation dans le temps de l'humidité du sol. Le dessèchement constaté au cours du temps en sol nu sous l'effet de l'évaporation indique que l'eau du sol a migré vers la surface. De même le dessèchement d'un sol cultivé sous l'effet de la transpiration végétale implique l'existence d'un micro-transfert dans la zone racinaire et d'une ascension capillaire de la profondeur jusqu'à la zone racinaire. Ces transferts obéissent à la loi de Darcy [...] 3, record 1, French, - transfert%20en%20sol%20non%20satur%C3%A9
