Abstract
Methods of expressing infiltration data are discussed and a series of experiments designed to determine the relation between antecedent soil moisture and various infiltration data is described. It is concluded that the regression equations obtained offer a means of correcting infiltration data to a common antecedent soil-moisture tension, and that measurements of initial infiltration should be accompanied by determination of antecedent soil moisture.
