Abstract: Rainfall results in the transfer of chemicals from soil to surface runoff. A
physically-based solute transport model was developed for estimating the solute concentration in
runoff originating from the soil surface. The model accounts for the effects of soil infiltration,
raindrops, the water runoff rate, and the return flow, all of which influence the concentration of
the solutes in the runoff. It was assumed that the depth of mixing zone changed with the
varieties of the raindrop hits, return flow, and overland flow. It was also assumed that runoff and
soil in the mixing zone mixed instantaneously and that the solute in the soil beneath the mixing
zone was moved to the mixing zone by diffusion. The mixing zone was included in the model and
was based on the deposited layer or shield concept. To test the model, laboratory experiments
were carried out that used two soil types that were exposed to simulated rainfall. The results
simulated by the model were highly correlated with the experimental data. In the first few
minutes after rainfall began, the solute concentration in the runoff was mainly controlled by the
rainfall rate and solute concentration in the mixing zone; higher solute levels in the mixing zone
