Short summary
Water flows ever more slowly in soil when the soil dries out. This can be described by the conductivity curve that accounts for water filling up small spaces, sticking to grains in films, and water vapour diffusion. This paper introduces a relatively simple model for this curve that needs one fewer parameter than most others. It works well for most soils, but some need the extra parameter. The paper also presents a computer program to determine the parameter values of this and other models.
