The Infiltration Game - Soils and Flooding
Show Notes

In this episode, we tackle the issue of infiltration capacity.  The idea came to us in the form of a listener question due to recent events.  Infiltration capacity is simply a way of describing the ability of soil and regolith to soak up water during storm events that drop a lot of rain in a short period of time.  There are several variables that must be accounted for in describing the infiltration capacity for a given area.  Humans have also caused a significant change related to this topic.  Join us in this fun conversation that has a lot of relevance in todays world.

We now have a live Mobile App for iOS and Android. There you can learn all the basics of geoscience with our CampGeo content, purchase a visual audiobook on the Geology of Yellowstone National Park, and listen to past PlanetGeo episodes!
