Icon Attribute Unit Range Description Default value
SOIL_WATER_RETENTION_CURVE Integer 0 to 1 Setting a Soil Water Retention Curve adjust the vertical hydraulic conductivity in the Unsaturated Zone. 0

Set this attribute to 1 and this can be done via the Van Genuchten-Mualem formula:

K(θ)=Ks⋅Se⋅(1−(1−Sen)m)2

Where:

K(θ) = Is the calculated vertical hydraulic conductivity for the given saturation
Ks = Is the saturated vertical hydraulic conductivity from Terrain ground infiltration md.
Se = Is the effective saturation between 0-1 of the Unsaturated Zone. This is a fraction between Sr (assumed close to zero) and the Water storage percentage.
n = 1/m
m = Van Genuchten Soil parameter.
