Three-way debate – measurements, pedotransfer functions, and inverse modeling – input strategy for soil hydraulic parameters in wheat simulations

Accurate characterization of soil hydraulic parameters is crucial for simulating soil-plant-water dynamics in agroecosystem models. Hydraulic parameters, specifically the field capacity and permanent wilting point, govern the soil water balance and define the limits of plant-available water. This study evaluated the im...

Determination of hydraulic conductivity and soil-water characteristic curve in different soil textures by mathematical equations

Measuring soil hydraulic properties is essential in soil science, but direct measurements are often laborious, time-consuming, and costly. Therefore, alternative methods based on mathematical models have gained increasing attention. This study aimed to estimate saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) and soil water chara...

Evaluation of European hydraulic pedotransfer functions for boreal agricultural soils against Finnish data

Soil hydraulic properties are essential information for sustainable agriculture and environmental management, yet their measurement is time-consuming and costly. Pedotransfer functions (PTFs) are widely used to estimate these properties from basic soil data, but few have been developed or validated for boreal condition...

Soil Hydraulic Properties Control Nitrate Leaching Under Continuous Rice Cultivation: Insights from Local Hydro-Pedotransfer Modeling and HYDRUS-1D

Nitrogen fertilization in flooded rice systems can promote nitrate leaching and groundwater contamination, particularly where groundwater is used for human consumption. This study aimed to assess soil susceptibility to nitrate leaching toward groundwater in rice-growing areas of Rioja, San Martín, Peru. Sampling was ba...

Numerical Modeling of Unsaturated Soil Slope of Bukit Mewah Using Field Data of Soil-Water Characteristic Curves

Rainfall-induced instability is a major concern for unsaturated residual soil slopes in tropical regions, where porewater pressure and matric suction fluctuate rapidly under transient hydrological conditions. This study investigates the hydro-mechanical response of the Bukit Mewah slope in Selangor through a fully coup...

Assessment of responsiveness of water balance components to soil parameters characterized in variable infiltration capacity model

This study evaluates the sensitivity of soil parameters used for soil stratification in the variable infiltration capacity (VIC) hydrological model and their influence on water balance components under contrasting hydro-climatic conditions. The selected parameters include b-infilt, which defines the shape of the infilt...
