Zusammenfassung:After a brief overview of preferential flow phenomena and relevant modeling concepts, the manuscript introduces 18 papers dealing with improved process descriptions, measuring techniques, and modeling approaches of preferential flow at various scales. The papers indicate a trend towards the use of noninvasive methods and improved modeling formulations.
