    The accuracy of the wick lysimeter is going to vary depending on the type of soil that it is installed in. The Drain Gauge has the ability to measure drainage with sub millimeter accuracy but there is still the potential for flux divergence and convergence. The optimal setting for a wick lysimeter is going to be in a coarse textured soil.
