Fractal scaling has recently been proposed as a model for soil particle‐size distribution (PSD).
In this work, the cumulative number of soil grains greater than a characteristic size, N(R > r…

In this paper, we present an analysis correlating the fitting parameter α in the Arya and Paris
(1981) soil water retention model to physical properties of the soil. Fractal mathematics are …

Stochastic transport theories rely on the assumptions that the principles of stationarity and
ergodicity are satisfied. These assumptions imply that the pattern of heterogeneity can be …

Numerous empirical models exist for soil water retention and unsaturated hydraulic
conductivity data. It has generally been recognized that the empirical fitting coefficients in these …

Raman spectra distributed temperature sensing (DTS) by fiber‐optic cables has recently
shown considerable promise for the measuring and monitoring of surface and near‐surface …

The public policy and public management literatures together support a vibrant discussion
of collaborative governance. Much of this scholarship takes a broad perspective focusing on …

Hydrologic research is a very demanding application of fiber-optic distributed temperature
sensing (DTS) in terms of precision, accuracy and calibration. The physics behind the most …

This paper addresses two research questions: (1) Does collaborative environmental
governance improve environmental outcomes? and (2) How do publicly supported collaborative …

Accurate methods are needed to measure changing soil water content from meter to
kilometer scales. Laboratory results demonstrate the feasibility of the heat pulse method …

Convective groundwater motion can be generated in aquifers beneath and adjacent to saline
lakes. Such motions strongly control the subsurface distribution of salts, the formation of …
