The RETC code for quantifying the hydraulic functions of unsaturated soils
TL;DR: The RETC computer code as mentioned in this paper uses the parametric models of Brooks-Corey and van Genuchten to represent the soil water retention curve, and the theoretical pore-size distribution models of Mualem and Burdine to predict the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity function from observed water retention data.

Geostatistics in soil science: state-of-the-art and perspectives
TL;DR: An overview of the most recent developments in the field of geostatistics and describes their application to soil science can be found in this article, where the authors assess the uncertainty about unsampled values, which usually takes the form of a map of the probability of exceeding critical values, such as regulatory thresholds in soil pollution or criteria for soil quality.

Development and Applications of the HYDRUS and STANMOD Software Packages and Related Codes
TL;DR: A review of the history of development, main processes involved, and selected applications of HYDRUS and related models and software packages developed collaboratively by several groups in the United States, the Czech Republic, Israel, Belgium, and the Netherlands can be found in this paper.

Soil type is the primary determinant of the composition of the total and active bacterial communities in arable soils
TL;DR: It is indicated that soil type was the key factor determining bacterial community composition in these arable soils and the active population was more indicative of short-term management changes.

Water infiltration and soil structure related to organic matter and its stratification with depth
TL;DR: In this paper, two soils (Typic Kanhapludults), one under long-term management of conventional tillage (CT) and another under longterm management (NT) were sampled to a depth of 12 cm and the results showed that the stratification ratio of soil organic carbon (SOC) was predictive of water infiltration rate.
