The capillary fringe is the subsurface layer in which groundwater seeps up from a water table by capillary action to fill pores. Pores at the base of the capillary fringe are filled with water due to tension saturation.
The capillary fringe is a term referring to the thickness of the body of saturated water held by capillarity above the water table. The height of the fringe will vary. Generally, the term is used as an average height of the water-filled soil capillaries (Kirkham, 1961, p. 25).
17 Απρ 2015 · Capillary fringes are highly dynamic and periodically changing zones at the interface between the water-saturated aquifer and the unsaturated zone. As a consequence, we observe steep gradients in terms of hydraulic state variables, biogeochemical conditions, and thus, biological activity (Berkowitz et al., 2004).

Definition. The capillary fringe is the zone above the water table where soil pores are filled with water due to capillary action, allowing moisture to rise from the saturated zone. This area plays a critical role in soil moisture dynamics and influences plant growth by providing access to water.
1 Νοε 2007 · While a comprehensive history of endothelial and pericyte biology falls outside the scope of the present review, a brief discussion of their discovery bears relevance to early concepts of the capillary wall.
Definition. The capillary fringe is the layer of soil or sediment that exists above the water table where water is held in small pores due to capillary action. This zone is crucial for understanding soil moisture dynamics because it influences the availability of water to plants and affects groundwater recharge.
