Measure In Situ Hydraulic Conductivity of the Vadose Zone with Confidence

The Compact Constant Head Permeameter, also known as the Amoozemeter, is a revolutionary piece of field equipment that provides the means to collect data for determining in situ saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) of the vadose (unsaturated) zone easily and conveniently. The procedure is known as: Constant Head Well Permeameter Technique, Shallow Well Pump-in Method, or Borehole Infiltration Test. The method has been described in detail in three of the Soil Science Society of America Monographs, including the second edition of the Methods of Soil Analysis.
