The dataset describes the Soil
Water Release Curve (SWRC) and Hydraulic Conductivity Function (HCF) of four
representative green roof substrates. The runoff and moisture content data
collected during the detention tests with the substrates is also included in
this dataset.
This dataset provides the data used
in the journal paper:
Peng, Z., Smith, C.,
Stovin, V., 2020. The importance of unsaturated hydraulic conductivity
measurements for green roof detention modelling. J. Hydrol. 590, 125273.
