Soil landscape position is important in relation to the amount of stored and available water for the plants. The cohesive layer in the tableland soil of the Northeast of Brazil hinders the water flow in the profile. During rainy periods, the formation of transitory water tables above cohesive horizons is possible, due to the restriction of descending vertical flow caused by such horizons. Therefore, the occurrence of interflow (downhill lateral subsuperficial water flow) on the cohesive horizons in slope areas […]
