N2 - Conceptual theory of the hydraulic conductibity of unsaturated porous media is presented. The resulting formulas of unsaturated hydraulic conductivity are classified into three categories: universal formulas independent of the soil type which result from extremely simplifying assumptions; formulas with one degree of freedom, and formulas with two degrees of freedom. The latter two types of equations result from accounting for the correlation between pores and the tortuosity of flow path.
