Predicting the soil water retention curve from the particle size distribution based on a pore space geometry containing slit-shaped spaces

<p>Traditional models employed to predict the soil water retention curve (SWRC) from the particle size distribution (PSD) always underestimate the water content in the dry range of the SWRC. Using the measured physical parameters of 48 soil samples from the UNSODA unsaturated soil hydraulic...
