Above a capillary fringe, pore spaces have air in them too.
2.
Water content in a capillary fringe decreases with increasing distance from the phreatic surface.
3.
Water content in the capillary fringe decreases with increasing distance above the phreatic surface.
4.
Others define the capillary fringe as including both the tension-saturated and unsaturated portions.
5.
The capillary fringe of the water table is the dividing line between saturated and unsaturated conditions.
6.
The vadose zone does not include the area that is still saturated above the water table, often referred to as the capillary fringe.
7.
The isobar ) by capillary action to saturate a small zone above the phreatic surface ( the capillary fringe ) at less than atmospheric pressure.
8.
Some workers restrict their definition of the capillary fringe only to the tension-saturated base portion and exclude it wholly from the vadose zone.
9.
It is not uncommon to see the capillary fringe treated as a boundary condition separating the water table from the unsaturated zone, without defining it as a significant part of either.
10.
The transmission zone lies between the base of the active layer and the top of the capillary fringe and so it more characterizes the seasonal ( instead of transient ) changes of soil moisture.
