public class Pedotransfer extends net.simplace.sim.model.FWSimComponent

Takes data with depth, clay percentage, silt percentage, sand percentage (optional, default 100-(clay+silt)), organic matter percentage (optional, default 0) bulk density (optional, default 1.4), top soil depth (optional, default 0.3 m), pedotransfer function (optional, default 'Hypres'), gravel percentage (optional, default 0) in n soil layers and transforms it to Van Genuchten parameters alpha, l, m, n and Ks or Volumetric water contents.

Description

Soil data is mostly delivered with the layer specific information. The layers have different depth and are varying in their count. This Transformer takes the texture data with these n different depth layers and creates Van Genuchten and Volumetric Water Content data.

Array fields like DOUBLEARRAY for the different parameters. Depending on the fields that you put into the header the different fields are calculated.
