その他の書誌記述:This article presents a comparative analysis of 15 hydraulic conductivity field tests performed in the vadose zone at two sites in Central Valley of Costa Rica, characterized by silt and sandy-silt soils. Conductivity tests included Guelph permeameter (GP), Porchet (PM) and Double Ring (DR) methods. All three methods indicates higher field saturated conductivity (Kfs) values at sandy-silt soils as expected. Calculated Kfs values show the same trend reported in various scientific publication were DR >PM>GP. Authors interpreted lower values of Kfs obtained for GP as the result of: consideration of capillarity effects in the mathematical formulation, and more importantly the effects of short periods of pre-saturation and monitoring, during execution of PM and DR tests.
