Cohesion is the component of shear strength of a rock or soil that is independent of interparticle friction. In soils, true cohesion is caused by following: 1  Electrostatic forces in stiff overconsolidated clays (which may be lost through weathering)  Cementing by Fe2O3, CaCO3, NaCl, etc.
This is termed 'soil roughness' â basically stopping water from running off and pooling. Hydraulic conductivity. The hydraulic conductivity of a soil is determined by soil profile characteristics. These include: Soil moisture. If the soil already has a high soil moisture content, infiltration will be low, as most of the soil pores will already be filled. Soil texture. As mentioned previously, water will infiltrate into sand quicker than into clay.
