Ideas in this flowchart
- Types of water flow
- Saturated flow
- All pores are filled with water
- Generally the fastest type of flow
- Unsaturated flow
- Some pores contain air
- Water moves through remaining water-filled pores and films
- Slower than saturated flow
- Vapor flow
- Water moves as a gas through extremely thin films
- The slowest form of flow
