Dataset underlying the publication: Machine learning for predicting spatially variable lateral hydraulic conductivity: a step towards efficient hydrological model calibration and global applicability

Dataset

Description

Two globally distributed maps of horizontal-to-vertical saturated hydraulic conductivity (fKh0) were generated using machine learning algorithms using random forest and boosted regression trees. Linking the calibrated benchmark of fKh0 achieved by Weerts et al. (2024) over 551 subbasins over the Great Britain to the structural soil properties from SoilGrids v1.0, we estimate pedo-transfer functions to predict fKh0 values globally at 250m spatial resolution.
