  "id": "MLC-T-MET-004147",
  "term": "Capillary pressure",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The pressure difference across the interface between two immiscible fluids within a porous medium, such as water and air in soil. It arises from surface tension and the curvature of the fluid interface in small pores. This pressure is a key factor in determining the distribution and movement of water in unsaturated soils.",
