Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is one of the most important factors playing a role in many agronomic, engineering and environmental activities. Therefore, many field and laboratory methods have been developed over time to estimate Ksat. Unfortunately, these methods often result in very dissimilar Ksat values since the parameter is very sen...

The geometry of pore space is one of the key features in understanding transport of water and solutes. For soils where macropores are present over the whole length of the soil profile and simulations at the pore scale are used to determine the macroscopic soil hydraulic properties the quantitative characterization of the soil structure and pore net...
