ABSTRACT

This paper presents a comprehensive collection of data derived from the transport experiments that were published in the literature. Such a compilation of information is essential to obtain a general understanding of transport processes in soils and the parameters and properties that control these processes. In contrast to previous studies, this study focuses on parameters that quantify preferential transport. I consider this study as highly relevant and would recommend its publication. However, I have a few major comments. First, I think that the authors should define what is actually meant by ‘preferential transport’. That is, when is transport considered to be preferential and when is it not? What is for instance the difference between preferential transport and
