Soil Water Content Sensor Response to Organic Matter Content under Laboratory Conditions
Studies show that the performance of soil water content monitoring (SWCM) sensors is affected by soil physical and chemical properties. However, the effect of organic matter on SWCM sensor responses remains less understood. Therefore, the objectives of this study are to (i) assess the effect of organic matter on the accuracy and precision of SWCM sensors using a commercially available soil wate...
متن کاملResponse of a New Soil Water Sensor to Variable Soil, Water Content, and Temperature
Thomas (1966) and later developed by Dean et al. (1987), whose work has lead to commercial soil water The success of time domain reflectometry (TDR) has led to the measuring instruments (Evett and Steiner, 1995; Paltidevelopment of other instruments that use the soil dielectric constant as the basis for determining volumetric soil water content. An example neanu and Starr, 1997). Readers are re...
متن کاملLaboratory Characterization of a Commercial Capacitance Sensor for Estimating Permittivity and Inferring Soil Water Content
Ring-capacitor sensors are used widely for real-time estimation of volumetric soil water content u from measured resonant frequency fr, which is directly affected by the bulk soil permittivity e. However, the relationship fr(e) requires improved quantification. We conducted laboratory experiments to characterize the response of the Sentek EnviroSMART sensor system for a full range of e values f...
متن کاملevaluation of pedotransfer functions and effect of organic matter in prediction of soil saturated water content
abstract saturated water content is one of the important parameters which its measurement is necessary in estimation of soil water retention and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves. in several researches, saturated water content is assumed to be equal to soil total porosity. in some others, its value is estimated by pedotransfer functions using readily available parameters, such as bulk d...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Soil Organic Matter on Gypsum Block Calibration for Measuring Soil Volumetric Moisture Content
Continuous soil moisture assessment and evaluation is essential for irrigation management and planning. One of the common methods for measuring the moisture content of the soil is the use of a gypsum block. The use of gypsum blocks in some cases, including the presence of organic matter in soil, may cause an error in the measurement of moisture. For this purpose, a laboratory study was conducte...
