Popis: Pedotransfer functions used to evaluate the Available Water Content (AWC), a key soil parameter for the description of soil-plant-atmosphere transfer are compared. We demonstrate that the functions using soil granulometry data are not more precise than functions using only textural classes, which can pilot the choice of a function for estimation of AWC over large territories.
