Estimation of soil water characteristic curve parameters in different models in light soils [PDF]
رویکردهای نوین در مهندسی آب و محیط زیستIn addition to soil water content, soil matric potential is also important for plant growth. Soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) or soil moisture characteristic curve describes soil water content and soil matric potential relationship.
