Predicting volumetric water retentions for subsoil materials from Colchester County, Nova Scotia.

Abstract

The significant variables in the regression equation for soil water content at a suction of 33 kPa were the sand content and the product of silt content and bulk density of the soil. The variables for water retention at 1500 kPa suction were the clay content and the product of organic matter content and bulk density. -from Authors
