Neutron radiography was proved as a powerful tool to simultaneously determine soil water content and root development in soil.
2.
The good drainage that sand-based systems exhibit also offer the turf manager better control over soil water content.
3.
Water readily moves in soil and soil water content is constantly changing so any gradients in soil moisture are not stable.
4.
Studies in Malaysia have shown that there is a significant relationship between root length density, soil water content and ultimately slope stability.
5.
Lorenzo A . Richards proposed it is taken as the soil water content when the soil is under a pressure of-15 bar.
6.
This is because a high root length density results in low soil water content which in turn results in an increase in shear strength and a decrease in soil permeability.
7.
When soil water content is low, plants can alter their water potential to maintain a flow of water into the roots and up to the leaves ( Soil plant atmosphere continuum ).
8.
We could probably use a whole article on soil water content, if anyone is interested in putting a stub together out of the links above : ) talk ) 17 : 54, 20 October 2013 ( UTC)
