Description We present a brief overview of methods suitable
for measuring or estimating infiltration. runoff or drainage.
Since an exhaustive mrvior is not fcaaibie in the context
of this paper, the emphasis h on field methods which are
not too complicated or expensive, and suitable for use in
the Sudano Sahelian zone. Methods for measurements over
large areas, e.& catchments. are not included. Obviously, for
natural events where interception of rainfall by the
vegetation can be ignored. Idbation and runoff together
equal precipitation: onh. two of the three procuacs need be
quantified to quantib the other. For each method a brief
dewription is given, together with a suitable reference for
further information.
