Using of pedotransfer functions for assessment of hydrolimits
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2002 Soil hydrologic coefficients, also called hydrolimits, are soil water contents defined for certain values of water potentials. Closer attention is paid to three hydrolimits: field capacity, point of decreased availability, and wilting point.
