Global Prediction of Soil Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity Using Random Forest in a Covariate‐Based GeoTransfer Function (CoGTF) Framework

Abstract Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is a key soil hydraulic parameter for representing infiltration and drainage in land surface models. For large scale applications, Ksat is often estimated from pedotransfer functions (PTFs) based on easy‐to‐measure soil properties like soil texture an...
