Fig. C1. In situ measurements of soil infiltration capacity conducted after the incorporation of biosolids and arrival of colonizing plants. Increases in infiltration rates from <5 to >10 cm/h are observed immediately after restoration, reaching c.a. 30 cm/h on average by year 2 (Silva et al. 2013b, Franco et al. 2014).
