Package 'infiltrodiscR'

Title: Minidisc Infiltrometer Data Management
Description: A set of functions for the modeling of data derived from the Minidisc Infiltrometer device. It calculates cumulative infiltration and square root of time. Also, it calculates the A parameter based on soil physical properties.

Cumulative infiltration and sqrt of time Using time and volume from field spreadsheets, the Cumulative infiltration and sqrt of time are calculated

Description

Cumulative infiltration and sqrt of time Using time and volume from field spreadsheets, the Cumulative infiltration and sqrt of time are calculated

Usage

infiltration(dataset, col_name)

Arguments

dataset

A tibble or data.frame including time and volume

col_name

vars including time and volume

Value

A tibble giving three new columns: sqrt_time, volume_infiltrated and infiltration

Examples

infiltration(data.frame(time = c(0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300,
0, 35, 65, 95, 125, 155, 185, 215, 245, 275, 305),
volume = c(95, 89, 86, 83, 80, 77, 74, 73, 71, 69, 67,
           83, 77, 64, 61, 58, 45, 42, 35, 29, 17, 15)))

Calculates parameter A from (Philip, 1957)

Description

Calculates parameter A from (Philip, 1957)

Usage

parameter_A(dataset, col_name)

Arguments

dataset

A tibble or data.frame including n_ho, alpha and suction

col_name

vars including n_ho, alpha and suction

Value

A tibble giving two new columns: suction_num, and parameter_A

Examples

parameter_A(data.frame(alpha = c(0.145, 0.008), n_ho = c(2.68, 1.09),suction = c("2cm","3cm")))

Tabulated VG parameters Van Genuchten parameters and values of A, n and alpha for the Minidisk Infiltrometer (Decagon Devices, Inc., 2005). 12 soil texture classes and suction from 0.5 to 7 cm are tabulated
