Technical Abstract: Estimating soil hydraulic properties, such as infiltration and hydraulic conductivity of saturated soil, is of importance since it allows for a better understanding of important hydrological processes like rainfall and/or irrigation partitioning. Current field based infiltrometers are difficult to use and require significant labor input. A simple double-ring infiltrometer was modified for the automated collection of data. The proposed design was tested on four different soil types at the USDA-Agricultural Research Service’s soil bin facility located at the National Soil Dynamic Laboratory in Auburn, Ala. The four soils ranged from a loamy-sand to a clay, and presented different conditions for this evaluation. Soils evaluated included Blanton loamy sand, Hiwassee sandy loam, Vaiden silty clay, and a Lloyd clay. In general, the Hiwassee sandy loam had the greatest infiltration capacity. This can be attributed to a high sand content and a relatively low bulk density. The infiltrometer design presented allows for multiple readings to be collected by a single user, while reducing operator error. Data collected with this approach can be used to estimate quasi-steady state infiltration, cumulative infiltration, and in-situ hydraulic conductivity of saturated soil. The proposed procedure is beneficial when multiple readings of soil hydraulic properties are required, such as when characterizing soil spatial variability.
