Characterization of field saturated hydraulic conductivity
Papers published in Hydrology and Earth System Sciences Discussions are under open-access review for the journal Hydrology and Earth System Sciences Abstract In the context of studies aiming at the estimation of effective parameters for unsaturated zone modelling, this work tackles the problem of experimental data quality, considering the large collection of data gathered at an experimental sit...
متن کاملArti fi cial Neural Network Estimation of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity
cial neural networks have become a common tool for modeling complex “input–output” dependencies. In the past, neural network models have been used as a special class of pedotransfer functions (PTFs) using feed-forward back propagation or radial basis functions to approximate any continuous (nonlinear) function (Hecht-Nielsen, 1990; Pachepsky et al., 1996; Schaap and Bouten, 1996; Minasny and Mc...
متن کاملEffect of pH on Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity and Soil Dispersion
The adverse effects of exchangeable sodium on soil hydraulic conductivity (K) are well known, but at present only sodicity and total electrolyte concentration are used in evaluating irrigation water suitability. In arid areas, high sodicity is often associated with high dissolved carbonate and thus high pH, but in humid areas high sodicity may be associated with low pH. To evaluate the effect o...
متن کاملScale-Dependent Pedotransfer Functions Reliability for Estimating Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity
Saturated hydraulic conductivity Ksat is a fundamental characteristic in modeling flow and contaminant transport in soils and sediments. Therefore, many models have been developed to estimate Ksat from easily measureable parameters, such as textural properties, bulk density, etc. However, Ksat is not only affected by textural and structural characteristics, but also by sample dimensions e.g., i...
متن کاملComparison of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity Estimated by Three Different Methods
This study compares saturated hydraulic conductivities (Ks) of three sandy soils such as coarse, medium and fine sand. The Ks was obtained using three different methods: empirical methods based on the grain size analysis, the relative effective porosity model (REPM), and breakthrough curve analyses based on tracer tests. Column drainage tests were performed to characterize the water retention p...
