Transient outflow experiments coupling with an inverse method are promising to derive soil hydraulic information. The water retention curves obtained from one-step and multi-step outflow experiments were compared with those from the pressure cell method. We found that in one-step experiments the increment of pressure would reduce the non-uniqueness of inverse technique and that in multi-step experiment the combination of cumulative outflow with pressure head in the objective function would improve the final estimation and also reduce the non-uniqueness of inverse problem.
