ABSTRACT Many modifications in hydrodynamic conditions occur inside the bed of a horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland (HSSF–CW) in operation. Studies on hydraulic conductivity measurement techniques in HSSF–CW are imperative since the monitoring of flow conditions is essential for understanding and controlling its clogging. This study aimed to assess the hydrodynamic behavior in HSSF–CW by means of saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) analysis. For this, six HSSF–CW were used: two non-cultivated (control), two cultivated with Tifton 85 (Cynodon spp.), and two cultivated with alligator weed (Alternanthera philoxeroides). Application of swine wastewater (SW) in HSSF–CW started on June 15, 2011, with Ks measurement period between September 9 and November 11, 2011, in which five measurements were performed in different positions along the system length and over experimental period in order to assess the effects of vegetation, position, and time factors on this variable. Ks values ranged from 1,392 to 2,834 m d−1. Plant presence led to Ks decreasing in the systems, but cultivated species had no influence on this variable. Monitoring time of HSSF–CW was no longer enough to provide a reduction in Ks, at 10% probability level.
