Comparison of Pedotransfer Functions for Determination of Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity for Highly Eroded Loess Soil

open access: yesLand, 2023
Saturated hydraulic conductivity is one of the most essential soil parameters, influencing surface runoff and water erosion formation. Both field and laboratory methods of measurement of this property are time or cost-consuming.

Pedotransfer functions for Irish soils – estimation of bulk density (ρb) per horizon type [PDF]

open access: yesSOIL, 2016
Soil bulk density is a key property in defining soil characteristics. It describes the packing structure of the soil and is also essential for the measurement of soil carbon stock and nutrient assessment. In many older surveys this property was neglected
