Based on soil water infiltration experiments in corn field, this paper analysed and discussed yearly change characteristics of soil water infiltration .

The soil saturated hydraulic conductivity Ks of BSC and three types of control(no any crust,physical crust and removed BSC) were measured by tension infiltrometer to explore the effects of BSC on soil water infiltration and conductivity.

Some developments and results of the studies on soil moisture at home and abroad were introduced from four aspects:soil infiltration theory, infiltration models, infiltration methods and some affecting factors of infiltration, and some brief reviews and analysis were given.

Broadleaf forest mixed by Lithocarpus glaber×Schima superba×Cinnamomum camphora×Liquidambar formsana has excellent soil water-holding capability,while broadleaf forest mixed by Lithocarpus glaber×Schima superba has strong soil infiltration efficiency.

The spatial variability of the regional soil water infiltration is one of key issues now, yet there is no better ways to solve it.

A total of 29 infiltration test sites were conducted over the area using double-ring infiltrometers,and the parameters of all the sites were simulated with two selected models(Kostiakov model & Philip model).

Spatial distribution characteristics of soil infiltration capacity in water conservation forest in Lianhua Lake reservoir area;

Estimation of soil infiltration parameters during furrow irrigation based on IPARM method;

From the crown to the plant roots of the plants,they reduce the flows and its amouring the soil,improve the soil infiltration of the flows,reduce the sediment transport on the slope,as a result,the water and soil losses also became smaller.

This study was conducted to understand the influence of surface coverage on soil infiltration in the farming-grazing transitional zone by taking Yanchi County, Ningxia Hui Automous Region as an example.

Steady-state infiltration rate decreases with increased soil bulk density,but increases with increased total porosity,water stable.

With increased soil temperature,saturation infiltration decreases firstly and then increases sharply,which can be well described by a quadratic function.
