Effects of the water retention curve on evaporation from arid soils

Marc Parlange, Ivan Lunati, Francesco Ciocca

Water retention curves approaching infinitely negative matric potentials at residual water content are widely employed to model soil moisture dynamics. When used in numerical simulations, these retention curves fail to satisfactorily describe evaporation f ...

Moisture and energy dynamics in fields soils : the influence of the diurnal cycle

Francesco Ciocca

Soil moisture is crucial to water-cycle as it affects infiltration, runoff and land-atmosphere interactions. In dry soils the role of water vapor fluxes becomes essential and causes a tight coupling between soil moisture dynamics and heat transfer, which m ...

On the use of spatially discrete data to compute energy and mass balance

Marc Parlange, Ivan Lunati, Francesco Ciocca

In many practical applications the state of field soils is monitored by recording the evolution of temperature and soil moisture at discrete depths. We theoretically investigate the systematic errors that arise when mass and energy balances are computed di ...
