Abstract: Horizontal borehole ground penetrating radar (GPR) measurements can provide valuable information on soil water content (SWC) dynamics in the vadose zone, and hence show potential to estimate soil hydraulic properties. In this study, the performance of both sequential and coupled inversion workflows to obtain soil hydraulic properties from time-lapse horizontal borehole GPR data obtained during an infiltration experiment were compared using a synthetic modelling study and the analysis of actual field data. The sequential inversion using the vadose zone flow model HYDRUS-1D directly relied on SWC profiles determined from the travel time of GPR direct waves using the straight-wave approximation. The synthetic modelling study showed that sequential inversion did not provide accurate estimates of the soil hydraulic parameters due to interpretation errors in the estimated SWC near the infiltration front and the ground surface. In contrast, the coupled inversion approach, which combined HYDRUS-1D with a forward model of GPR wave propagation (gprMax3D) and GPR travel time information, provided accurate estimates of the hydraulic properties in the synthetic modelling study. The application of the coupled inversion approach to measured borehole GPR data also resulted in plausible estimates of the soil hydraulic parameters. It was concluded that coupled inversion should be preferred over sequential inversion of time-lapse horizontal borehole GPR data in the presence of strong SWC gradients that occur during infiltration events.
