In this paper, we present and analyze a novel global database of soil infiltration
measurements, the Soil Water Infiltration Global (SWIG) database. In total, 5023 infiltration …

Land use change has remarkable impact on hydrological processes. However, little is
known on the land use dependent variation of soil water infiltration characteristics. This …

In the present work, a review for the methodologies that have been proposed to calculate the
main soil hydraulic properties, hydraulic conductivity (K) and sorptivity (S), at negative …

Field water flow processes can be precisely delineated with proper sets of soil hydraulic
properties derived from in situ and/or laboratory experiments. In this study we analyzed and …

Soil hydraulic characterization is crucial to describe the retention and transport of water in
soil, but current methodologies limit its spatial applicability. This paper presents a cost …

Hydraulic parameters of the soil play a considerable role in the hydrological cycle, irrigation
planning, drainage, groundwater recharge, and water resources management. One of the …

Many different equations ranging from simple empirical to semi‐analytical solutions of the
Richards equation have been proposed for quantitative description of water infiltration into …

The soil sorptivity, S, and saturated hydraulic conductivity, K s, can be estimated from the
inverse analysis of a cumulative infiltration curve using the quasi-exact implicit (QEI) …

Aims Assuming the saturated, θ s, and residual θ r volumetric water contents of a seed as
known inputs, we present a methodology to determine the hydraulic properties of a seed: α …

Soil water infiltration can be described with the quasi-analytical Haverkamp et al.(1994)
equation, defined by the hydraulic conductivity (K s), sorptivity (S) and the β parameter. K s …
