GCIP/NESOB-96 Sub-Surface: ARM Parameters for Soil Water Retention Models Data Set https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/19.028 Summary The Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP) Parameters for Soil Water Retention Models Data Set is one of the various sub-surface data sets developed for the ARM/GCIP (Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment ?GEWEX? Continental-scale International Project) 1996 Near-Surface Observation (NESOB-96) Data Set. This data set contains one table for each of the ARM SWATS (Soil Water and Temperature System) sites at the SGP site containing the fitted values of the parameters in the van Genuchten and Brooks-Corey equations for relating soil water pressure to volumetric water content. The soil characterizations were perfomed by Oklahoma State University. No additional quality control was performed by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research/Joint Office for Science Support (UCAR/JOSS).
