Comparison of the performance of 22 models describing soil water retention curves from saturation to oven dryness

The relationship between model performance and complexity showed that traditional models with residual water content performed worse than segmental models from saturation to oven dryness, and the segmental models performed worse with an increase in the segment number. In general, models with more pa...

Tóm tắt:The relationship between model performance and complexity showed that traditional models with residual water content performed worse than segmental models from saturation to oven dryness, and the segmental models performed worse with an increase in the segment number. In general, models with more parameters perform better, but when the parameter number is greater than five, the model performance gradually worsens due to the equifinality of different parameters. The correlation analysis between soil properties on model performance showed that soil texture has a more significant effect on model performance than bulk density and organic matter content, because the models are primarily affected by their mathematical forms rather than the physical significance of the parameters. Each model picks its limitations and may apply to only one or particular group(s) of soil(s). Therefore, the complementarities of different models may be a great choice to improve SWRC fitting and simulation in arid soil.
