      abstract     = {Modeling soil hydraulic properties requires an effective
                      representation of capillary and noncapillary storage and
                      conductivity. This is made possible by using physically
                      comprehensive yet flexible soil hydraulic property models.
                      Such a model (Brunswick [BW] model) was introduced by Weber
                      et al. (2019, https://doi.org/10.1029/2018WR024584), and it
                      overcomes some core deficiencies present in the widely used
                      van Genuchten‐Mualem (VGM) model. We first compared the
                      performance of the BW model to that of the VGM model in its
                      ability to describe water retention and hydraulic
                      conductivity data on a set of measurements of 402 soil
                      samples with textures covering the entire range of classes.
                      Second, we developed a simple transfer function to predict
                      BW parameters based on VGM parameters. Combined with our new
                      function, any existing pedotransfer function for the
                      prediction of the VGM parameters can be extended to predict
                      BW model parameters. Based on information criteria, the
                      smaller variance of the residuals, and a $40\%$ reduction in
                      mean absolute error in the hydraulic conductivity over all
                      samples, the BW model clearly outperforms VGM. This is
                      possible as the BW model explicitly accounts for hydraulic
                      properties of dry soils. With the new pedotransfer function
                      developed in this study, better descriptions of water
                      retention and hydraulic conductivities are possible. We are
                      convinced that this will strengthen the utility of the new
                      model and enable improved field‐scale simulations, climate
                      change impact assessments on water, energy and nutrient
                      fluxes, as well as crop productivity in agroecosystems by
                      soil‐crop and land‐surface modeling. The models and the
                      pedotransfer function are included in an R package spsh
