how is soil a facilitator for percolation and retention of water
The Major Factors That Affect The Amount Of Water Runoff In An Area Are: - amount of vegetation and non-permeable surfaces (development) - slope of land (grade) - duration and rate of rainfall - nature of ground (soil type) - soil saturation (moisture)

The factors which affect soil pH levels are the amount of rainfall, the amount of plants and the number of soil organisms.
Clay soil is said to hold the most water. This is because the soil's particles are so small and there are numerous small soil spaces. Water moves slowly through. So there is great water retention.
Minerals in the soil and the amount of gases.
how is soil a facilitator for percolation and retention of water
soil humidity, air humidity, soil structure, pH, nutrients availability, temp,
Density is 123.5 lb/cf and the maximum water retention is 22.34%.
It depends on what is making the soil black. The colour itself has little to do with water retention.
Soil, water, microbes, sunlight, herbivores etc.

Loam soil having good water retention capacity.

Three physical factors of the ecosystem are temperature, sunlight, and wind and three chemical factors are level of water in soil, level of plant nutrients in soil, and levels of dissolved oxygen.
Factors that affect evaporation include temperature, humidity, wind velocity, exposed surface area, porosity of soil, grain size of soil particles, soil water content, matric potential, and sun intensity.
One of the factors that affects soil type is how close you are to an ocean or other body of water. As nearly everyone knows, beachfront property is often very sandy, and thus, being near a body of water will affect soil type. Another factor that will likely affect soil type in the area is volcanic activity. If there are active volcanoes in the area, the soil type will definitely be affected by the ash and volcanic rock. Yet another factor that can affect soil type is farming. If there is lots of farming in an area, it will affect all of the nutrients in the soil, and while this may not change the soil type, it will certainly affect the soil quality.
