Popis:	The physical properties of biochar have been shown to dramatically influence its performance as a soil amendment. This study assessed the role of biochar particle size and hydrophobicity in controlling soil water movement and retention. Softwood pellet biochar in five particle size ranges (>2 mm, 2–0.5 mm, 0.5–0.25 mm, 0.25–0.063 mm and 2 mm biochar. The soil hydraulic conductivity increased with decreasing biochar particle sizes, with the exception of
