Estimation of soil water retention from clay content and cation exchange capacity values of soils [PDF]
South African Journal of Plant and Soil, 1993 Soil water characteristics can be estimated accurately from the clay content and cation exchange capacity (CEC) values of soils. The clay with its very large adsorption surface and CEC which reflects the negative charge of clays, is jointly responsible for adsorbing di-polar water molecules.
