macropores are

water enters the soil, it
displaces air from
interconnected macropores by buoyancy, and
breaks aggregates into
which air is entrapped, a process...

surface runoff;
their roots create macropores –
large conduits – in the soil that
increase infiltration of water; they...

These macropores operate as weak

field capacity, air is in the
macropores, and
water is in the micropores.
Field capacity is the
