英文摘要	Studying and determining the physical properties and hydraulic parameters of vadose zone sediments is an important key to evaluate the infiltration rate into them and assessing the extent to which aquifer sediments benefit from rainwater harvesting in arid and semi-arid areas. Due to the lack of sufficient data on the characteristics of this zone depths, a numerical modeling was used to simulate the electrical resistivity of these sediments by applying the electrical resistivity method, because it is the most affected by the physical properties of dry and wet sediments. This study was applied as a proposal for application in northwestern KSA to calculate the vertical hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity for the vadose zone. This was implemented by assuming a three-layer model using COMSOL Multiphysics model with different electrical resistivity values depending on some in situ electrical resistivity measurements for shallow depths. Hence, the infiltration rate of sediments in this area can be predicted with depth and its effect on aquifer recharge. The focus was on calculating the vertical hydraulic parameters of the most widespread surface sediments with depth and comparing the results of calculating these parameters for some sediments laboratory-wise to ensure their accuracy. Then, their infiltration rate was inferred separately with depth, predicting their ability to aquifer recharge and make the most of rainwater harvesting. Finally, this study can be considered as a preliminary study to determine the expected forward model of electrical resistivity and hydraulic parameters values for the vadose zone sediments with depth along the area and in any other areas, and then apply them accurately in situ to estimate the extent of its usefulness in rainwater harvesting, especially aquifer recharge.
