A simplified parametric model to describe the magnitude and geometry of soil shrinkage (2006, background): “…of analytical expressions that determines their performance, rather than the physical meaning of their parameters or their conceptual background, as was demonstrated by Cornelis et al. (2005) in applying various deterministic models for the soil-water retention curve to a wide range of soil types.”
Prediction of Water Retention of Soils from the Humid Tropics by the Nonparametric k‐Nearest Neighbor Approach (2013, methodology): “…Agrisearch Equipment), whereas for matric potentials between −20 and −1500 kPa, pressure chambers (Soilmoisture Equipment) were used, following the procedures described by Cornelis et al. (2005). h e coupled matric potential– water content pairs represent single measurements on single samples.”
Evaluation of Soil Physical Quality Index S for Some Tropical and Temperate Medium-Textured Soils (2015, methodology): “The procedure followed was described by Cornelis et al. (2005).”
Enhanced pedotransfer functions with support vector machines to predict water retention of calcareous soil (2016, methodology): “The undisturbed soil samples were used to determine the SWRC and bulk density following the procedure described in Cornelis et al. (2005).”
Using Pedotransfer Functions to Estimate the van Genuchten–Mualem Soil Hydraulic Properties: A Review (2010, methodology): “Reducing the number of parameters from fi ve to four, for example by assuming m = 1 − 1/n or m = 1, generally leads to improved PTF predictions at the expense of less fl exibility in describing the observed data (Vereecken et al., 1990; Cornelis et al., 2005; Lennartz et al., 2008).”
Comparing Aggregate Stability Tests for Soil Physical Quality Indicators (2015, methodology): “Because the index depends on yres, it was necessary to set the residual water content in Equation 5 equal to zero to prevent negative fitted values being obtained (Cornelis et al., 2005). This was also performed by Dexter (2004b) and should allow better comparison between the various soils.”
