Pendular water is the moisture clinging to particles, such as soil particles or sand, because of surface tension. Surface tension is a property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force. It is revealed, for example, in floating of some objects on the surface of water, even though they are denser than water, and in the ability of some insects (e.g. water striders) to run on the water surface. This property is caused by cohesion of like molecules, and is responsible for many of the behaviors of liquids.
