This data release contains code for computing the filtering properties of cyclical infiltration in a layered vadose zone in Central Valley, California. The code for computing the filtering is described in a manuscript that is under review at Vadose Zone Journal. The updated data contained in this data release are the code to compute the filtering properties of the vadose zone. This code was developed in 2018. The code uses existing data as inputs. The inputs are from a groundwater flow model for Central Valley, California, described by Faunt et al. (2009), and from a soil texture model described by Faunt et al. (2010). The inputs from Faunt et al. (2009) and Faunt et al. (2010) were released in those years and are...
Abstract (from Valdose Zone): Infiltration and downward percolation of water in the vadose zone are important processes that can define the availability of water resources. We present an approach that provides insight into how periodic infiltration forcings at the land surface filter in a layered vadose zone in terms of changes in the timing and magnitude of hydrologic responses. To represent geologically realistic systems, we used vertical sequences of one-dimensional periodic solutions, where each solution represents a single soil in a layered profile. The overall approach is based on a linearized Richards equation and assumes that the effects on flow of continuous pressure head changes at soil interfaces are...
