Determination of the water diffusivity of horticultural substrates: comparison of different approaches for the one-step outflow data analysis

The improved iterative method for the simultaneous determination of the hydraulic properties of growing media from one-step experiment by Bibbiani, was performed on pure peat, pure pumice, and peat/pumice (1peat:1pumice by volume) mix, and compared with simplified equations by Valiantzas and Londra,...
