2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the Soil Moisture Characteristic Curve?
Think about what happens to water retention as moisture levels change.
Define hysteresis in the context of soil.
Consider how soil behaves differently when wet versus when dry.
What does the Soil Moisture Characteristic Curve represent?
Think about what you’ve learned regarding moisture retention capacity.
Hysteresis occurs due to differences in retention while:
Consider the impact of temporal soil conditions.
You have clay and sandy soil samples. Design a procedure to measure their retention curves and identify the impact of hysteresis.
What equipment will you need and how will you analyze the data?
How would you utilize hysteresis data to improve irrigation practices in a crop field with varying soil textures?
Think about water needs and how different soils hold moisture.
