When contacted about the study, Dr. Warren Wood, senior author of the article, indicated that the prairie dog burrows, and indeed any macropores, become "less important" to the issue of groundwater recharge when water is applied over a surface as an even spray rather than as a flood of water.

His unique contributions are in modeling: infiltration, chemical transfer to runoff & macropores, scaling across soil types, management effects on soil, and agricultural systems.
