There’s a lot to consider when collecting soil moisture measurements.

Join Environment Support Manager, Chris Chambers, and Director of Science Outreach, Leo Rivera, as they discuss submitted questions all about getting the best soil moisture measurements.

In the full episode, they discuss: 

1. How difficult is the calibration of dielectric sensors? 
2. How does soilless media affect the operation of dielectric sensors? 
3. How much can organic soil amendments influence soil moisture? 
4. Is it possible to determine the soil hydraulic properties from soil water content? 
5. Why volumetric water content instead of gravimetric water content? 
6. What is the best way to correct for the temperature sensitivity of sensors? 
7. And more.
