Waterretentie- en doorlatendheidskarakteristieken van boven- en ondergronden in Nederland: de Staringreeks : Update 2018

Heinen, M.; Bakker, G.; Wösten, J.H.M.

Summary

In 2001 the first complete database of soil physical properties, water retention and hydraulic conductivity, of 18 top soils and 18 subsoils of the Netherlands was published. This database, known as the Staring series, provides a full coverage of soil horizons for all of the soil units on the Dutch soil map 1:50 000. In the period 2012-2018 new soil samples have been added to the database and an update of the mean retention and conductivity parameters has been realized: Staring series, update 2018.
