Tension disc infiltrometers are becoming increasingly popular devices for in situ measurement of the unsaturated hydraulic properties of soil. Tension infiltration data are generally used to evaluate the parametersKs and ain Gardner's exponential model of the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity. Either two measurements using different disc diameters or measurements with a single disc but using multiple pressure heads are then used. In this paper we describe a parameter estimation procedure which… Expand
