      abstract     = {Understanding soil moisture variability and its
                      relationship with water content at various scales is a key
                      issue in hydrological research. In this paper we predict
                      this relationship by stochastic analysis of the unsaturated
                      Brooks-Corey flow in heterogeneous soils. Using sensitivity
                      analysis, we show that parameters of the moisture retention
                      characteristic and their spatial variability determine to a
                      large extent the shape of the soil moisture variance-mean
                      water content function. We demonstrate that soil hydraulic
                      properties and their variability can be inversely estimated
                      from spatially distributed measurements of soil moisture
                      content. Predicting this relationship for eleven textural
                      classes we found that the standard deviation of soil
                      moisture peaked between 0.17 and 0.23 for most textural
                      classes. It was found that the beta parameter, which
                      describes the pore-size distribution of soils, controls the
                      maximum value of the soil moisture standard deviation.},
