A laboratory simulation experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of biochar application on hydraulic properties of arable topsoils from ten regions in China.Biochar was incorporated into the soils at the volume rate of 0%(C0),5%(C5),10%(C10)and 15%(C15),respectively.The results indicated that the effect of biochar on soil permeability were determined by soil texture,the saturated hydraulic conductivity declined in aeolian sandy soil and yellow loamy soil with high sand content due to the application of biochar,which were decreased ...
