AB  - This year marks the 20-year anniversary of Vadose Zone Journal and we are currently publishing Volume 20 of the journal. In fall 2002, the inaugural issue of Vadose Zone Journal was published. The journal was established by Rien van Genuchten based on the recognition of the increasing importance of the vadose zone and the need for a multi- and interdisciplinary outlet of research related to the vadose zone. The vadose zone (i.e., the zone between the soil surface and the groundwater), and the associated near-surface atmosphere, including the biosphere, have long been the research focus of soil scientists, hydrologists, geochemists, geophysicists, biologists, environmental scientists, and engineers, but the research was published in various disciplinary journals. Vadose Zone Journal provided a common outlet for all these research activities, including interdisciplinary and, more recently, transdisciplinary research.
