Abstract

The article presents a study which develops pedotransfer functions (PTF) to predict the hydraulic properties of soil in Loess Plateau, China. The study uses soil samples, analysis of variance, and multiple linear regression analysis to determine the statistical characteristics of the soil. Results show that the developed PTF has accurately predicted the hydraulic parameters of soil from Chinese Loess Plateau.
