Multiscale Pedotransfer Functions for Soil Water Retention
Soil hydraulic properties are needed in globaland regionalscale circulation models for hydrologic and climate forecasting. They are also necessary in pointand nonpoint-source contaminant transport models. Prediction accuracy of these models is highly dependent on the quality of the model parameters. Collecting the required soil hydraulic parameters by direct measurement at any model grid scale ...
متن کاملevaluation of the performance of pedotransfer functions for estimating soil moisture retention curve with swrc model
soil water retention curve (swrc) is important in the studies of soil and water relationship, soil conservation, irrigation scheduling, drainage, solute transport, plant growth and crop water stress. the performance of 10 models (simons et al., libardy et al., campbell, farrell and larson, van genuchten, brooks and corey, driessen, exponential bruce-luxmore, power bruce-luxmore, and rogowski) w...
متن کاملField-Scale Water Flow Simulations Using Ensembles of Pedotransfer Functions for Soil Water Retention
Using pedotransfer functions (PTF) to estimate soil hydraulic properties may be necessary in soil water flow simulations for large-scale projects or in pilot studies. The accuracy of a PTF outside of its development dataset is generally unknown. The existence of multiple models that are developed and tested in one region, but may perform relatively poorly in other regions, is also common in met...
متن کاملEstimating the water retention curve from soil properties: comparison of linear, nonlinear and concomitant variable methods
The unsaturated soil hydraulic functions involving the soil–water retention curve (SWRC) and the hydraulic conductivity provide useful integrated indices of soil quality. Existing and newly devised methods were used to formulate pedotransfer functions (PTFs) that predict the SWRC from readily available soil data. The PTFs were calibrated using a large soils database from Hungary. The database c...
متن کاملEvaluation of Regional pedotransfer Functions Based on the BP Neural Networks
The unsaturated soil hydraulic properties, including soil water retention curve and hydraulic conductivity, are the crucial input parameters for simulating soil water and solute transport through the unsaturated zone at regional scales, and are expensive to measure. These properties are frequently predicted with pedotransfer functions (PTFs) using the routinely measured soil properties. 110 soi...
