这种仪器在设计上，采用了由大到小的逐渐变化的水压梯度，使渗透过程更符合于田间实际情况。此外，它还能自动记录渗透的全过程。

The meter could record automatically the whole process of penetration which was fully reflected on marked scales in accordance with change of water pressure in the field.

降水往往会把细小的粘土颗粒转移到土壤的最微小的空隙中，使这些空隙变得封闭，从而形成了一种几乎不允许任何水分渗透下来的表层土壤。

The impact of raindrops on the loose soil tends to transfer fine clay particles into the tiniest soil spaces, sealing them and producing a surface that allows very little water penetration.
