# Oosterveld and Chang (1980), soil-moisture retention from texture and depth.

## Source

Oosterveld, M., & Chang, C. (1980). Empirical relations between laboratory determinations of soil texture and moisture retention. Canadian Agricultural Engineering, 22, 149-151.

## Scope

**Territory:** Southern Alberta, Canada

**Dataset:** 1,137 pressure-plate analyses on 298 soil samples from the Lethbridge Research Station laboratory; the field-capacity tension regression used 134 samples.

## Functions

### `calc_ptf_oosterveld1980_field_capacity_tension`

Estimate field-capacity tension from clay content.

**Status:** `implemented`

**Prediction target:** Tension at which pressure-plate moisture content equals field capacity determined by the cylinder method.

**Models:** $h(\theta)$ — Field-capacity tension point estimate

#### Inputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `clay` | % mass | 2 <= value <= 72 | Clay content in percent by weight; the field-capacity tension experiment covered 2% to 72% clay. |

#### Outputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `field_capacity_tension` | kPa | value > 0 | Predicted tension corresponding to cylinder-method field capacity. |

!!! note

Equation 1 reports r = 0.67 and n = 134.

### `calc_ptf_oosterveld1980_retention`

Estimate gravimetric soil-moisture content from texture, depth, and tension.

**Status:** `implemented`

**Prediction target:** Gravimetric soil-moisture content at a specified tension.

**Models:** $h(\theta)$ — Empirical power-law moisture-retention relation

#### Inputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `clay` | % mass | — | Clay content in percent by weight. |
| `sand` | % mass | — | Sand content in percent by weight. |
| `mean_depth` | cm | 8 <= value <= 180 | Mean depth of the soil sample. |
| `tension` | kPa | 10 <= value <= 1500 | Soil-moisture tension. |

#### Outputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `moisture_content` | % mass | — | Predicted soil-moisture content in percent by weight. |

!!! note

Equation 2 reports r = 0.96 and n = 1,137.

!!! warning

The paper reports slight inaccuracy at very high clay content and high tension.

### `calc_ptf_oosterveld1980_field_capacity`

Estimate gravimetric soil-moisture content at field capacity.

**Status:** `implemented`

**Prediction target:** Gravimetric soil-moisture content at field capacity.

**Models:** $h(\theta)$ — Field-capacity point estimate derived from Equations 1 and 2

#### Inputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `clay` | % mass | 2 <= value <= 72 | Clay content in percent by weight; the field-capacity tension experiment covered 2% to 72% clay. |
| `sand` | % mass | — | Sand content in percent by weight. |
| `mean_depth` | cm | 8 <= value <= 180 | Mean depth of the soil sample. |

#### Outputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `field_capacity_moisture` | % mass | — | Predicted soil-moisture content at field capacity in percent by weight. |

!!! note

Equation 3 is obtained by substituting the Equation 1 field-capacity tension into Equation 2.

### `calc_ptf_oosterveld1980_wilting_point`

Estimate gravimetric soil-moisture content at the 1500 kPa wilting point.

**Status:** `implemented`

**Prediction target:** Gravimetric soil-moisture content at 1500 kPa.

**Models:** $h(\theta)$ — Wilting-point estimate at 1500 kPa

#### Inputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `clay` | % mass | — | Clay content in percent by weight. |
| `sand` | % mass | — | Sand content in percent by weight. |
| `mean_depth` | cm | 8 <= value <= 180 | Mean depth of the soil sample. |

#### Outputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `wilting_point_moisture` | % mass | — | Predicted soil-moisture content at 1500 kPa in percent by weight. |

!!! note

Equation 4 reports r = 0.96 and n = 298.

!!! note

The paper takes moisture content at 1500 kPa as the wilting point.

### `calc_ptf_oosterveld1980_available_water`

Estimate available gravimetric soil moisture between field capacity and wilting point.

**Status:** `implemented`

**Prediction target:** Difference between gravimetric moisture content at field capacity and at the 1500 kPa wilting point.

**Models:** $h(\theta)$ — Available-moisture point estimate from Equations 3 and 4

#### Inputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `clay` | % mass | 2 <= value <= 72 | Clay content in percent by weight; the field-capacity tension experiment covered 2% to 72% clay. |
| `sand` | % mass | — | Sand content in percent by weight. |
| `mean_depth` | cm | 8 <= value <= 180 | Mean depth of the soil sample. |

#### Outputs

| Name | Unit | Domain | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `available_moisture` | % mass | — | Predicted field-capacity moisture minus predicted wilting-point moisture, in percentage points by weight. |

!!! note

The paper defines available soil water by subtracting Equation 4 from Equation 3.
