“…The mean change effectiveness of biochar application on runoff volume 24 and 48 h before the simulation treatment were −98.46% and −46.39%, respectively. It verified that the biochar amendment could store more runoff leading to more infiltration, as already reported by Smetanová et al (2012) who highlighted that the 10% biochar decreased runoff by up to~40%. When 10% biochar was applied on a 15% slope, it decreased the runoff coefficient of the control condition by up to 59% with a runoff coefficient of 16% at the end of the experiment.…”

“…Few studies (Smetanová et al, 2012;Jien and Wang, 2013;Hseu et al, 2014) have discussed the influences of biochar on soil erosion potential. However, the potential effects of biochar made from vinasse, as the first attempt, on runoff and soil loss control has not been assessed or documented yet.…”

“…We used the contact angle of a hydrophilic sand ( θ c ≈0°) because previous studies showed that biochar only causes a small degree of change in contact angle in soil [27, 28]. Based on this, we then estimated that ψ will be greater than -2.88 kPa when interpore size >0.1 mm.…”

“…Charcoal produced during wildfires is a black carbon material similar to biochar. However, charcoal is neither produced under engineered conditions nor intentionally added to soil (Smetanova et al, 2013). Because of the low‐oxygen content near the ground surface during wildfires (Bryant et al, 2005), pyrolytic conditions occur and fresh hydrophobic charcoals are produced (Briggs et al, 2012).…”

“…Freshly created biochars from corn stover, magnolia leaf, and apple wood were found to be hydrophobic when pyrolyzed at ∼300 to 400°C but hydrophilic at pyrolysis temperatures of 500 to 600°C (Kinney et al, 2012). The pyrolysis temperature ranges for the creation of hydrophobic or hydrophilic biochars may not be universal because biochars produced from wood and bark at 500 to 600°C were hydrophobic (Smetanova et al, 2013).…”
