      abstract     = {Don Kirkham was instrumental in transforming soil physics
                      into a modern scientific discipline by developing theories
                      based on verifiable hypotheses, creating methods to test the
                      hypotheses, and applying the theories to problems of
                      importance to society. We, the recipients of the Don and
                      Betty Kirkham Award in Soil Physics, show how this legacy
                      continues to affect soil physics. We describe eight
                      longstanding or emerging research areas in soil physics that
                      contain key unsolved problems. All are field oriented, with
                      applications to a number of important issues in agriculture
                      and the environment. The first three problems deal with the
                      topic of characterization of field-scale soil water
                      properties, within which we describe progress on scaling,
                      effective hydraulic properties, and the relationship between
                      soil structure and function. We then move to the description
                      of unstable flow and characterizing water repellency, and
                      finish with discussions on the effect of plants on transport
                      processes, characterizing soil microbial diversity, and the
                      importance of soil ecological infrastructure in providing
                      ecosystem services. The challenges we discuss reflect
                      inherent gaps between the complexity of the soil environment
                      and its biogeochemical function, and the limited measurement
                      and analytical tools at our disposal. Improving our
                      predictive capabilities at relevant spatial and temporal
                      scales will be necessary to address some of the
                      long-standing problems within agriculture and the soil
                      environment.},
