This study was carried out to investigate the characteristics of the field-saturated hydraulic conductivity( $K_{fs}$ ) and matric flux potential(ф$_{m}$) measured by the Guelph Permeameter at the Backokpo watershed in the Han river and at the Bangdong watershed in the Keum river. And the Alpha (a) value which is the ratio of $K_{fs}$ to ф$_{m}$ were determined and the a values along with the defined soil series could be utilized to classify the soil in the Korean watershed into the SCS hydrologic soil groups.ups.
