Abstract:
A water retention curve is required for the simulation studies of water and solute transport in unsaturated or vadose zone. Unlike the direct measurement of water retention data, pedotransfer functions (PTFs) have attracted the attention of researchers for determining water retention curves from basic soil properties. The objective of this study was to develop and validate point and parametric PTFs for the estimation of water retention curve from basic soil properties such as particle-size distribution, bulk density, and porosity using multiple-linear regression technique and comparing the per

Abstract:
A porous-solid model based on the grain and pore size distributions of the soil is coupled with a mechanical model to simulate the soil-water retention curves while the material is deforming. During the determination of the main drying curve, the soil is subjected to high suctions which induce important volumetric deformations. These volumetric deformations modify the pore size distribution of the sample affecting both the drying and the wetting retention curves. Although, most deformation occurs at drying, the drying curve is only slightly affected by soil deformation. In contrast, the wettin

This prediction scheme is incorporated into a forecasting model for ungauged catchments and results are presented to show the potential validity of the scheme for operational forecasting.

The water retention behaviour of soil can be defined as the relationship between the degree of saturation (or water content) and suction at a constant temperature, which characterises the hydraulic behaviour of unsaturated soils, normally represented as the soil water retention curve (SWRC). The SWRC is commonly measured at nominal net stress by initially saturating a soil specimen and then subjecting it to drying and wetting paths, resulting in major drying and wetting curves.

Abstract:
The suction stress characteristic framework is a practical approach for relating the suction and the water-filled pore volume to the stress state of unsaturated soils. It predicts the effective stress by developing the suction stress characteristic curve from the soil-water retention curve. In this framework, the effective degree of saturation is usually calculated by the empirical water retention model of van Genuchten (published in 1980). In this paper, the use of a generalized soil-water retention model proposed by Lu in 2016, which differentiates the role of capillary and adsorption mechan

Abstract:
In the study of water transference in soil according to Darcy law, the knowledge of hydrodynamic characteristics, formed by the water retention curve θ(ψ), and the hydraulic conductivity curve K(ψ) are of great importance. The first one relates the water volumetric content (θ) with the water-soil pressure (ψ); the second one, the hydraulic conductivity (K) with the water-soil pressure. The objective of this work is to establish relationships between both curves using concepts of probability theory and fractal geometry in order to reduce the number of unknown functions.

Abstract:
Soil quality is usually assessed through the measurement of selected soil properties. However, in spite of the diversity of the chosen properties, use of the soil water retention curve, like the pressure head or the specific water capacity at the inflection point, provides relevant information of degradation or improvement of soil. The main aim of this study was to evaluate the methods based on these indices in the evaluation of short-term changes of olive cropped soils under typical Mediterranean agricultural conditions. For this reason, soil properties (bulk density, hydraulic conductivity,
