Best Answer
  1. Slope angle of ground surface
  2. Hydraulic conductivity of soil (higher this value, greater infiltration)
  3. Presence of vegetation cover (presence of vegetation reduces infiltration rate)
  4. Density of vegetation cover (sometimes referred to as leaf area index - higher this value, lower infiltration)
