Soil hydraulic conductivity (K s) is a crucial soil physical property that not only influences soil
hydrological processes, but also the planning for vegetation recovery, irrigation practice and …

Soil hydraulic properties play an important role in modelingwater and solute movement
within the vadose zone of soils. Direct measurement of hydraulic parameters at a wide range …

Core Ideas Ks was estimated using MLR‐type PTFs, ANN‐type PTFs and state‐space
analysis. State‐space modeling was scale‐sensitive in estimating Ks in Loess Plateau …

Soil hydraulic parameters (SHPs) represent a crucial input for modelling of water flow,
biogeochemical processes, and plant growth. This modelling depends on an accurate …

Soil pedotransfer functions (PTFs) are alternatives to expensive field and laboratory
methods for acquiring soil hydraulic properties. Traditional PTFs generally require soil …

Abstract The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) region lacks large database of soil hydraulic
parameters (SHPs) due to difficulty in soil sampling, and time-and labor-consuming …

Soil hydraulic properties (SHPs) including the soil water retention curve and saturated soil
hydraulic conductivity (Ks) are crucial input data for simulations of soil water and solute …

Core Ideas Estimation of Ks using established PTFs for one specific field was evaluated.
Selected PTFs exhibited unsatisfactory prediction of Ks at the field scale. Taking macropore …

Abstract Purpose Pedotransfer functions (PTFs) have gained wide development in recent
years as approaches to establishing the relationship between easily measurable or readily …

A total of 107 soil samples were taken from the city of Qingdao, Shandong Province, China.
Soil water retention data at 2.5, 6, 10, 33, 100, 300, and 1500 kPa matric potentials were …
