Three-Porosity Model for Predicting the Gas Diffusion Coefficient in Undisturbed Soil

TL;DR: The three-porosity model (TPM) as mentioned in this paper combines three gas diffusivity models: (i) a general power-law D P (e) model, (ii) the classical Buckingham (1904) model at air saturation, and (iii) a recent macroporosity dependent model for D P at -100 cm H 2 O of soil-water metric potential (ψ).
Journal ArticleDOI

Density-Corrected Models for Gas Diffusivity and Air Permeability in Unsaturated Soil

TL;DR: In this article, a density-corrected (D-C) D p (e)/D o model was proposed to predict gas diffusivity and air permeability in Danish soil profile data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Excluded-volume expansion of Archie's law for gas and solute diffusivities and electrical and thermal conductivities in variably saturated porous media

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated analogies and differences between the four parameters, including gas and solute diffusivities and electrical and thermal conductivities under variably saturated fluid conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between specific surface area and the dry end of the water retention curve for soils with varying clay and organic carbon contents

TL;DR: In this article, the dry end of the soil water retention curve (SWRC) was measured with a chilled-mirror dew point psychrometer for 41 Danish soils covering a wide range of clay (CL) and organic carbon (OC) contents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure-Dependent Water-Induced Linear Reduction Model for Predicting Gas Diffusivity and Tortuosity in Repacked and Intact Soil

TL;DR: In this article, the water-induced linear reduction (WLR) model for repacked soil is made adaptive for different soil structure conditions (repacked, intact) by introducing a media complexity factor (C m ) in the dry media term of the model.
