Measurement Scale Effect on Prediction of Soil Water Retention Curve and Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity
Soil water retention curve (SWRC) and saturated hydraulic conductivity (SHC) are key hydraulic properties for unsaturated zone hydrology and groundwater. In particular, SWRC provides useful information on entry pore-size distribution, and SHC is required for flow and transport modeling in the hydrologic cycle. Not only the SWRC and SHC measurements are time-consuming, but also scale dependent. ...
متن کاملeffect of type and count of input variables on moisture retention curve and saturated hydraulic conductivity prediction
abstract pedotransfer functions (ptfs) are useful means of prediction many properties of the soil, and especially the hydraulic characteristics of this porous media. the main advantages of this functions, as compare to conventional methods used to directly estimate soil hydraulic properties, is that they are not time-cost consuming. different approaches such as classic linear and non linear reg...
متن کاملEffect of pH on Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity and Soil Dispersion
The adverse effects of exchangeable sodium on soil hydraulic conductivity (K) are well known, but at present only sodicity and total electrolyte concentration are used in evaluating irrigation water suitability. In arid areas, high sodicity is often associated with high dissolved carbonate and thus high pH, but in humid areas high sodicity may be associated with low pH. To evaluate the effect o...
متن کاملPrediction of the saturated hydraulic conductivity from Brooks and Coreys water retention parameters
[1] Prediction of flow through variably saturated porous media requires accurate knowledge of the soil hydraulic properties, namely the water retention function (WRF) and the hydraulic conductivity function (HCF). Unfortunately, direct measurement of the HCF is time consuming and expensive. In this study, we derive a simple closed-form equation that predicts the saturated hydraulic conductivity...
متن کاملsimultaneous scaling of soil water retention and hydraulic conductivity functions
abstract scaling methods, which are based on similar media theory, are used to simplify the statistic description of soil spatial variations. to simulate the water flow in heterogeneous soils, simultaneous scaling of soil hydraulic functions, including soil water retention and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity functions, is highly desirable. in the similar media theory, the simultaneous scalin...
