Overview
Hydrological and transport properties of soil are crucial for sustainable agriculture. Efficacy of these properties are sensitive to an array of mechanical, chemical, and biological processes, which span from the single pore scale to the field and often influence one another. Given the complexity of these processes, understanding how to link pore scale phenomena to the continuum scale remains an open question. Despite the need for interdisciplinary exchanges, current research generally operates with a number of different measurement and modelling techniques used to try and understand specific aspects of flow and transport in soil relevant to specific research scopes. The purpose of this interdisciplinary workshop will be to bring together key researchers working in different areas of soil structural imaging, chemical imaging and mathematics with the aim of developing a unified approach to study water and solute movement in soils. This will provide a platform for experimentalists and modellers to discuss the vital issues and possible solutions relevant to scalability of results and methodologies in soil.
