Uncertainty in the determination of soil hydraulic parameters and its influence on the performance of two hydrological models of different complexity

Data of soil hydraulic properties forms often a limiting factor in unsaturated zone modelling, especially at the larger scales. Investigations for the hydraulic characterization of soils are time-consuming and costly, and the accuracy of the results obtained by the different methodologies is still d...
