Abstract: | An experimental study on evaporation from homogeneous sandy and loamy soils was carried out to define the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity function. Gardner's empirical function k(ψ) (1958) was used in the analysis of experimental data. Parameters involved in the k(ψ) functions obtained were evaluated. The error due to exclusion of the b-factor varied with the depth of water table for both sandy and loamy soils. |
