For those looking for a more scientific method, a soil moisture meter — sometimes called a soil probe — is a quick and simple way to measure soil moisture. It provides more information than sticking your finger in the soil or squeezing it. To use a soil moisture meter: Wipe the probe ...
How many measure- ments of soil moisture within the footprint of a ground-based microwave radiometer are required to account for meter-scale spatial variability? Va- dose Zone J. 12. doi:10.2136/vzj2012.0100 (this issue).Bramer L., Hornbuckle B., & Caragea P. 2013. How many measurements...
An increase in litter moisture content (to values between 37.4% and 51.1%, depending on the temperature) may result in higher NH3 emissions, but higher moisture values decrease emissions (Miles et al., 2011b). Throughout the rearing period, the porosity of the litter decreases due to the ...

Basically soil pH is a measure of the amount of lime (calcium) contained in your soil, and as a result, the type of soil that you have. Generally, soils in moist climates tend to be acid and those in dry climates are alkaline. A soil with a pH lower than 7.0 is an acid soil and...
How does soil moisture evaporate? Factors Affecting Evaporation: Many factors affect evaporation, such as temperature, humidity, and particle size. Temperature affects evaporation because if it's too hot, more water molecules will turn into steam due to increased kinetic energy. Humidity also affects...
Soil moisture is an important consideration though, since green onions have shallow root systems. Pay close attention and make sure to water as soon as the top half-inch or so of soil is dry. But, be careful not to leave the soil waterlogged for too long. It should be consistently moist...
It is a fundamental indicator used to measure the state of the atmosphere. Meteorologists calculate the it by measuring and computing the moisture content and temperature of the air. It holds significant importance in weather forecasting and warnings of meteorological disasters. When the dew point in...
Electrical resistivity imaging (ERI): ERI is a geophysical method that uses electrodes to measure the electrical resistivity of soil. By measuring the resistivity, the EC value of the soil can be estimated. Soil moisture sensor: Soil moisture sensors are commonly used in smart agriculture to help...
The NDMI index is a measure of how well-hydrated a growing plant is right now. Soil moisture issues or a plant’s inability to take in enough water could be to blame for out-of-the-ordinary index values. However, keep in mind that this feature is appropriate only for non-flooded dry-...
