Capillary rise rise experiments in snow using neutron radiography

There are 4 videos of capillary rise experiments as well as the files used to perform the inverse fitting with Hydrus. The videos show the upward flow of water in glass columns filled with sand and snow or sand, gravel, and snow.

The videos show the 2D evolution of the unitless optical density with time. The Hydrus files were used to fit the parameter values of the Mualem-van Genuchten model. The experiments were performed at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Villigen, Switzerland.
