Abstract
This study investigated the heterogeneous water characteristic functions and hydraulic conductivities for a gleyic podzol under a coniferous forest 40 km northeast of Hannover, Germany. The hydraulic properties were parameterized with the van Genuchten model. Reference functions and sets of scaling factors were derived for every horizon. The scaling factors showed correlation lengths of about 0.2 m. Along a 10 m long transect the spatially variable rain throughfall as the upper boundary and the groundwater level as the lower boundary was measured. A tracer experiment was conducted for the period of main groundwater recharge. Using the independent measurements of heterogeneous hydraulic properties, we simulated the solute transport for this period with a conventional model that solves the Richards' equation for water flow and the convective dispersive equation for solute transport. We found qualitative agreement between some features of the measured and modeled solute transport such as its channel-like structure. However, the partly preferential flow of solutes and the correspondingly large dispersivities could not be modeled.
