Free Virtual Seminar: Soil Moisture 301: Why does my soil moisture sensor measure negative?

24 April 2013 by Dr. Doug Cobos

Dielectric soil moisture sensors are used all over the world to measure soil water content for water balances, irrigation scheduling strategies, and other plant-soil-atmosphere continuum studies. However, understanding how the instruments actually measure soil moisture will greatly enhance your ability to interpret your data. This virtual seminar will explore: 

• How dielectric soil moisture sensors work
• The variables that affect the accuracy of dielectric sensors
• How to increase the accuracy of dielectric soil moisture sensors
