This function compute water content at given pressure head, using Van Genuchten water retention curve
pF_curve(head, thetaR, thetaS, alfa, n)
(numeric) suction pressure ([L] or cm of water)
(numeric) residual water content (cm3/cm3)
(numeric) saturated water content (cm3/cm3)
(numeric) related to the inverse of the air entry suction, alfa > 0 (1/cm)
(numeric) a measure of the pore-size distribution, n>1, dimensionless
theta (numeric) water content (cm3/cm3)
The moisture content of a soil given a certain pressure head. A numeric value.
