Water Retention Capacity

Water retention capacity is the functional relation between soil water content and soil water tension. It reflects the pore size distribution and thus describes the water retention properties of the soil. The position of the curve, which records an important hydrological soil relation, is significantly influenced by soil type, storage density, and humus content and soil structure.
