Ullrich Mathias Dettmann %O Dissertation Universität Rostock 2016 %X This thesis improves the characterization of unsaturated hydraulic properties for different types of peat and other organic soils at the laboratory and the field scale. First, suggestions for a general improvement of the unsaturated hydrological modeling in peatlands are made. Second, a novel one-dimensional expression for calculating specific yield for shallow groundwater systems with microrelief has been derived which was the basis for the development of a novel in situ method for determining soil water retention characteristics in shallow groundwater systems. %L 553.21 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %U http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve/urn/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2017-0094-8
