Functions

calc_ptf_aimrun2009

Estimate saturated hydraulic conductivity for lowland paddy soils.

static inline double calc_ptf_aimrun2009(double clay, double bulk_density, double organic_matter, double gmd);

Parameters

Name Direction Description
clay in Clay content, <2 um. (%)
bulk_density in Dry bulk density. (g/cm^3)
organic_matter in Organic matter content. (%)
gmd in Geometric mean diameter of texture. (mm)

Returns

Saturated hydraulic conductivity. (m/s)

Note

Sand and silt are not inputs to the selected final model.

Note

Applicability: Clayey rice soils with compacted subsoil.

Warning

The formula uses natural logarithms of all inputs.
