Abstract Frost heave and thaw settlement driven by freeze‐thaw cycles in seasonally frozen soils of cold regions are strongly related to water migration. A key parameter controlling water migration in frozen soils is the hydraulic conductivity, which predominantly governs the movement of water under thermal and hydraulic gradients.

Geotechnical Stability Analysis of Dune Face Erosion by Waves
Abstract Predicting the extent of wave‐driven dune erosion under wave impact and elevated water levels will improve our ability to safeguard the livelihood of ecosystems, communities and infrastructure living behind sandy beaches worldwide. However, the geophysical processes leading to time‐dependent dune face failures are still not fully understood ...

Experimental study on SWCCs under equal stress and equal void ratio states
The existing laboratory test results in the literatures show that the void ratio is a direct factor affecting the soil-water characteristic curves (SWCCs), whereas the stress state is an indirect factor affecting SWCC, via void ratio.

Estimation of soil water characteristic curve parameters in different models in light soils [PDF]
In 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.
