Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the research fields of soil science, soil mechanics and soil and water conservation, and relates to a method and a device for measuring the unsaturated moisture diffusivity of soil, in particular to a disc type unsaturated soil moisture diffusivity instrument which can simultaneously measure a plurality of soils. Background technique
[0002] 40% of the world's land area is located in arid and semi-arid regions. Water shortages restrict the development of industry and agriculture in these regions and cause many ecological problems. Soil moisture not only provides the water needed for plant growth, but also acts as a carrier for transporting various nutrients. It plays a key role in the construction and succession of vegetation ecosystems. Therefore, revealing the characteristics of soil moisture movement and rationally regulating soil moisture status are important. The foundation of agricultural production and ecological enviro...
