Question 1
What does the decay constant (k) signify in Horton’s equation?
💡 Hint: Consider its role in infiltration behavior over time.
Question 2
Horton’s Infiltration Index is primarily used to estimate:
- Initial runoff volume
- Average infiltration rates
- Soil moisture levels
💡 Hint: Think about what the index aims to simplify in hydrologic analysis.

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
If f0=15 mm/hr and fc=3 mm/hr, given k=0.3, what would the infiltration rate be after 5 hours?
💡 Hint: Calculate e^{-1.5} first to find the rate.
Question 2
Discuss the implications of using only the initial infiltration capacity when applying Horton's Index in urban planning.
💡 Hint: Consider why urban areas require precise rainfall runoff predictions.
