In order to understand the theory for constructing an optimal layered soil, the water movement modeling in
different soil textures in Jin-Shan-Meng adjacent region was conducted using soil columns. Homogeneous soil columns
including sand, feldspathic sandstone, loessal soil and red clay were repacked. An automatic observation system
( AOS) had been applied to these columns to determine the soil water content and weight of each column. Water infiltration
and soil evaporation was observed by the AOS and simulated by HYDRUS-1D model. The results show that infiltration
and evaporation are different among different soil textures. The infiltration rates in descending order are sand,
feldspathic sandstone, loessal soil and red clay. The evaporation rates in descending order are loessal soil, red clay,sand and feldspathic sandstone. The infiltration processes and soil water content under infiltration and evaporation were
simulated comparable to measurement. According to the results in this study, the layered soils suggested from top to
bottom are feldspathic sandstone, sand, loessal soil and red clay. The upper coarse soil and lower fine soil in soil profile
is beneficial to rainfall infiltration and reduces soil evaporation. It is very important to guide soil restoration in open-pit
mine region.
