A percolation test (colloquially called a perc test) is a test to determine the water absorption rate of soil (that is, its capacity for percolation) in preparation for the building of a septic drain field (leach field) or infiltration basin. [1] The results of a percolation test are required to design a septic system properly.
Percolation theory has been applied to a wide variety of fields of study, including medicine, economics, physics, as well as other areas of psychology, such as social sciences and industrial and organizational psychology. Below is a table of other areas of study that apply percolation theory as well as recent research information.
Bernoulli (bond) percolation on complete graphs is an example of a random graph. The critical probability is p = 1 / N , where N is the number of vertices (sites) of the graph. Bootstrap percolation removes active cells from clusters when they have too few active neighbors, and looks at the connectivity of the remaining cells. [20]
The activity of soil is the ratio of the plasticity index to the clay size fraction. If activity is less than 0.75, the soil is inactive. If activity exceeds 1.4, then the soil is termed active. If activity lies within the above values, then the soil will be moderately active. [10]
Groundwater recharge is an important process for sustainable groundwater management, since the volume-rate abstracted from an aquifer in the long term should be less than or equal to the volume-rate that is recharged. Recharge can help move excess salts that accumulate in the root zone to deeper soil layers, or into the groundwater system.

Ecopsychology is an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary field that focuses on the synthesis of ecology and psychology and the promotion of sustainability. [1] [2] [3] It is distinguished from conventional psychology as it focuses on studying the emotional bond between humans and the Earth.
