Methods for Measuring the Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity of Tills [PDF]
Hydrology Research, 1990 The texture of tills excludes many of the traditional methods for measurement of the saturated hydraulic conductivity. The hydraulic conductivity is scale dependent and for massive relatively homogeneous till a representative sample volume of 104-105 cm3 is suggested. There are no ideal methods for measuring the saturated hydraulic conductivity in till

Estimation and Scaling of the Near-Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity
Hydrology Research, 1999 The hydraulic conductivity in structured soils is known to increase drastically when approaching saturation. Tension infiltration allows in situ infiltration of water at predetermined matric potentials, thus allowing exploration of the hydraulic properties near saturation.
