Abstract: Abstract Soil matric potential (SMP) is usually monitored by a tensiometer for managing irrigation in forest plantations, so determining where to install the tensiometer is important for improving irrigation efficiency. However, such work has never… read more here.

Abstract: Climatic variations induce negative pore-water pressure or soil suction oscillations in unsaturated soil with daily and seasonal cycles. The dramatic suction changes of unsaturated soil in shallow depths can lead to engineering failures. However, suction… read more here.

DOI: 10.2136/vzj2018.04.0070
Abstract: Tensiometer-equipped data acquisition systems measure and record positive and negative soil-water pressures. These data contribute to studies in hillslope hydrology, including analyses of rainfall runoff, near-surface hydrologic response, and slope stability. However, the unique ability… read more here.
