Classification of Soil Series by the Hydraulic Properties

수리학적 토양통군의 분류

This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of the field-saturated hydraulic conductivity$(K_{fs})$ and matric flux potential$({\Phi}_m)$ measured by the Guelph Permeameter at the Backokpo watershed in the Han river and at the Bangdong watershed in the Keum river. And the Alpha $({\alpha})$ value which is the ratio of $K_{fs}$ to ${\Phi}_m$ were determined and the ${\alpha}$ values along with the defined soil series could be utilized to classify the soil in the Korean watershed into the SCS hydrologic soil groups.
