BOREAS HYD-01 Soil Hydraulic Properties

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: October 11, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-09-10

The BOREAS HYD-01 team made several measurements related to soil moisture and soil properties. These soil hydraulic properties were determined at the flux tower sites based on analysis of in situ tension infiltrometer tests and laboratory determined water retention from soil cores collected during the 1994-95 field campaigns. Results from this analysis are saturated hydraulic conductivity, and fitting parameters for the van Genuchten-Mualem soil hydraulic conductivity and water retention function at flux tower sites.
