Description

Multi-temporal soil moisture measurements using TDR probe combined with soil coring and laboratory processing to determine moisture content, bulk density, and texture characteristics across environmental gradients.

Typical Equipment

  • Field Scout TDR150 soil moisture probe
  • soil corer
  • plastic bags
  • balance
  • sieves
  • graduated cylinder
  • tin cups
  • oven

Output Measurements

  • soil moisture percentage
  • soil bulk density
  • soil texture
