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
