Soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (KS) is one of the most important hydraulic parameters
for simulating water movement and solute transportation across soil profile, which is a highly …

Abstract The Loess Plateau of China has experienced extensive vegetation restoration in
the past several decades, which leads to great changes in soil properties such as soil bulk …

Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ks) is a critical soil property affecting water flow and solute
transport. In the Loess Plateau of China, sloping farmlands have been increasingly replaced …

Soil hydraulic conductivity (K s) is a crucial soil physical property that not only influences soil
hydrological processes, but also the planning for vegetation recovery, irrigation practice and …

Understanding the variability in soil hydraulic conductivity in the mountainous headwaters is
critical to the modeling of mountainous runoff and the water resources management of river …

Soil infiltration plays an important role in the processes of soil moisture, runoff generation,
erosion, and nutrient movement under different climatic zones. Vegetation restoration may …

The changes of soil hydraulic properties under early-stage (from several years to a few
decades) natural vegetation recovering are not well understood in semiarid zones. We …

Effects of plant roots on changes of soil hydraulic properties, including soil water retention
curves (SWRC) and soil hydraulic conductivity functions (SHCF), are not well understood …

Soil hydrological properties play a key role in soil hydrological processes. However, the
effect of long-term vegetation restoration on soil hydrological properties and the …

Saturated hydraulic conductivity (K s) is one of the most important soil properties that
determines water flow behavior in terrestrial ecosystems. However, the K s of forest soils is …
