FIG. 10. Hydraulic functions for five typical soils from the Army Loop Road Dike Site: (a) water retention,
(
), and (b) hydraulic conductivity, K(
). Textures included silt loam (IN-A1-5), loam (AL-CDT3-1), sandy loam (AL-CDT2-8), loamy sand (AL-0CDT2-5), and sand (AL-HT1-1). Matric potential,
, is in meters, and hydraulic conductivity is in centimeters per second.
