Fig. 1. Modifications included in the improved PELMO version. (A) Measured and calculated soil moisture profiles over the course of the wind-tunnel study on gleyic cambisol using the official PELMO version (FOCUS PELMO, top compartment thickness: 5 cm) and the modified version (top compartment thickness: 1 mm). (B) Correction factors for soil adsorption coefficients (gleyic cambisol). For moistures in the top millimeter of the soil ranging from above air-dry conditions to below wilting point, the sorption coefficients were increased by the given correction factors.
