| *Accuracy for soil testing is only moderate relative to permeameter methods (ASTM International, 2010) and results tend to be biased towards higher values due to lateral flow. Potentially requires large volume of water and significant length of time for each measurement to reach steady state when used for soil testing. | | *Accuracy for soil testing is only moderate relative to permeameter methods (ASTM International, 2010) and results tend to be biased towards higher values due to lateral flow.
