Abstract
This study was carried out in order to test unsaturated hydraulic conductivity estimation of van Genuchten's and Campbell's models using one-step outflow method through Tempe pressure cell. The undisturbed soil cores (columns) were taken from Ap1, B1 and C horizons of Songjeong series (the fine loamy, mesic family of Typic Hapludults). After the saturated hydraulic conductivity Ks of the cores was determined by constant head method, water outflow rate and retentivity of cores were measured in Tempe pressure cell. Fitted curves by models accorded to measured data except for both end of pressure range. In near-saturated condition, measured water retention characteristics showed a relatively better fitness with Campbell's model than van Genuchten's. The soil unsaturated conductivity estimated by Campbell's model was higher than by van Genuchten's. In Ap1 and B1 horizon, the soil unsaturated conductivities obtained by one-step outflow method went between van Genuchten's and Campbell's hydraulic functions, slightly closer to van Genuchten's. In C horizon, van Genuchten's model had better fitness with the one-step outflow data. Consequently, van Genuchten's model generally had better fitness with measured hydraulic conductivity than Campbell's model at the soil water potential range of -10~-75 kPa, especially in C1 horizon. In near-saturated condition, Campbell's model could be thought as relatively accurate hydraulic model, because of the better fitness of Campbell's model with soil water retention data than van Genuchten's model.
이 연구는 Tempe 압력셀에서 1-단계 유출법을 이용하여 불포화수리전도도 추정모형인 van Genchten 모형과 Campbell 모형을 비교하고자 수행하였다. 토양 코아(컬럼)는 서울대학교 농업생명과학대학 부속 사과 과수원에 위치한 송정통 (the fine loamy, mesic family of Typic Hapludults) 의 Ap1, B1, C 층에서 채취하였다. 각 층위의 컬럼들에 대해 포화수리전도도를 측정하고 Tempe 압력셀에서 수분보유곡선을 측정한 후 최소좌승법으로 모형의 변수를 도출하였다. 수분보유곡선에서 모형과 측정치는 잘 적합하였고 포화근처에서 Campbell 모형의 적합도가 van Genchten 모형보다 약간 더 좋았다. Campbell 모형의 불포화수리전도도가 van Genchten 모형보다 높게 추정되었으며 1-단계 유출법의 불포화수리전도도는 C층에서 van Genchten 모형과 잘 적합하였고 Ap1층, B1층에서는 두 모형의 중간에서 van Genchten에 약간 더 가까웠다. 따라서 불포화수리전도도 측정범위-10~-75kPa에서 van Genuchten 모형이 실측치와 더 적합하다 할 수 있었고, 포화근처에서는 수분보유곡선과의 적합도가 Campbell 모형이 더 높은 것으로 보아 상대적으로 수리전도도함수의 정확도가 높을 것으로 추측할 수 있었다.
