Iowa Soil Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity (Ksat) Maps [gSSURGO]

Saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) refers to the ease with which pores in a saturated soil transmit water. The estimates are expressed in terms of micrometers per second. They are based on soil characteristics observed in the field, particularly structure, porosity, and texture. Saturated hydraulic conductivity is considered in the design of soil drainage systems and …Continue reading “Iowa Soil Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity (Ksat) Maps [gSSURGO]”
