: This paper is part of our current effort to document lysimeter responses in the field; it addresses in particular a pressing issue: which parameters are relevant for lysimeter design when assessing seepage through landfill final covers. It is, to our knowledge, the first time that a thorough study on the effects of different parameters on lysimeter efficacy are assessed; at least for lysimeters for the desired application: landfill covers. Our analysis of efficacy is grounded on the fundamentals of unsaturated flow.
