Abstract

Permeability is the process and capacity of soil that allows for the vertical movement of water according to the properties of the soil profile, which may face impermeable bedrocks. This indicates that water remains in the soil for some time, where it is used by animals and plants. The velocity of water movement through soil is calculated in inches per hour. To calculate permeability accurately, measurements from the surface to the bedrock are taken. When the soil becomes saturated, it forms a shiny crust on the surface. Permeability is related to soil particle size, but in general, permeability in soil occurs very slowly. Additionally, when the soil surface has a higher angle and precipitation intensity is lower, a smaller amount of water infiltrates the soil. For agriculture and cultivation, high permeability allows a greater amount of water to be stored in the soil. High permeability can also help recover groundwater. However, poor management and high permeability may wash away essential elements and components important for microorganisms in the soil. Plant cover can be beneficial for soil management and percolation.
