Soil matric conductivity

The matric conductivity, k_mat, can either be independent of the total saturated conductivity, the same as total saturated conductivity or a function of the total conductivity (see switch Matric Conductivity). In the latter case, actual matric conductivity, k_mat, is calculated as:

                                          (2.33)

where h_com and h_sens are parameters and k_sat is the total saturated conductivity. See viewing function Matric Conductivity Function.
