Scope¶
Territory: Typical Loess Plateau of China, covering approximately 430,000 square kilometers.
Dataset: 729 samples from 243 sites, sampled in 2012 at depths of 0-10, 10-20, and 20-40 cm. Each of 400 random calibration-validation splits used 583 development records and 146 validation records (Section 2.3.1).
Functions¶
calc_ptf_zhao2016_m2_1¶
Estimate saturated hydraulic conductivity using reconstructed M2-1.
static inline double calc_ptf_zhao2016_m2_1(double bulk_density, double silt, double clay);
Parameters¶
| Name | Direction | Description |
|---|---|---|
bulk_density | in | Soil bulk density measured on undisturbed cores. (g/cm^3) |
silt | in | Silt content measured by laser diffraction using USDA taxonomy (Section 2.2.2). (%) |
clay | in | Clay content measured by laser diffraction using USDA taxonomy (Section 2.2.2). (%) |
Returns¶
Saturated hydraulic conductivity, measured by the constant-head method. (mm/min)
Note
Highest-ranked fitted PTF, ranked by descending R-squared (Section 3.3).
Note
Uses Table 1 means and standard deviations for Jia et al. (2012) Equation 3 on both predictors and response, as a reviewed reconstruction.
Warning
The publication does not explicitly confirm Table 1 statistics as the fitted scaling constants or the application of response scaling. This reconstruction has not been verified against author software.
Warning
Observed ranges describe the sampled soils; predictions are not clamped.
