Suppose there is steady-state flow in the field. Two tensiometers were installed at a depth of 60 cm (#1) and 30 cm (#2) from the soil surface. The matric potentials are -50 and -15 cm for Tensiometers #1 and #2, respectively. The K at -32.5 cm of matric potential is 10-13 cm s^-1.
If the water flux is 0.02 cm/day, calculate the unsaturated hydraulic conductivity of the soil between 30 and 60 cm in depth.
