Abstract:Abstract. Traditional models employed to predict the soil water characteristic curve (SWC) from the particle size distribution (PSD) always underestimate the water content in the dry range of the SWC. Using the measured physical 10 parameters of 48 soil samples from the UNSODA unsaturated soil hydraulic property database, these errors were proven to originate from the underestimation of the pore volume fraction of the minimum pore diameter range. A method was therefore proposed to improve the estimation of the… Show more
