Abstract
Regression equations, developed to predict the water content at 1/3- and 15-atm tension for various soil Orders in Canada, were tested against a set of independent data with generally a good degree of success. Some of the discrepancies between predicted and observed values could be attributed to the mineralogical and/or textural distribution of the prediction vs. test data, but in other cases causes of inconsistency were unclear. The equations which were not tested, due to insufficient available test data, should be used with caution.
