| Abstract | Fast water infiltration during heavy rainfall events is an important issue for hillslope hydrology and slope stability. Most hillslopes are strongly heterogeneous and contain macropores and soil pipes, so that infiltrating water can bypass the soil matrix and reach rapidly deeper regions. Water infiltration into macroporous soils is usually simulated with dual-permeability models based on Richards equation (RDPM) which only describes water flow. In this article, we present a two-phase dual-permeability model (TPDPM) for simulating water and air flow in macroporous soils. Water and air flow are simulated in both domains and mass transfer for water and air between the domains is included with first-order transfer terms. The main objectives of this article are to discuss the differences between TPDPM and RDPM and to test the application of the TPDPM on the slope scale. First, the differences between RDPM and TPDPM were studied using a one-dimensional layered soil. For the chosen high infiltration rate, we observed significant differences in the macropore domain and small differences in the matrix depending on the transfer parameter. Second, we applied the model to simulate fast water infiltration and flow through an alpine hillslope, where the water flow mainly occurs in the macropore domain and the matrix domain is bypassed because it is low permeability. A good agreement of simulated and measured travel times of Wienhöfer et al. (Hydrol Earth Syst Sci 13(7):1145–1161, 2009) was obtained. Finally, we recommend using TPDPM for high infiltration in layered macroporous soils. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
