Improved Calibration Functions of Three Capacitance Probes for the Measurement of Soil Moisture in Tropical Soils

Single capacitance sensors are sensitive to soil property variability. The objectives of this study were to: (i) establish site-specific laboratory calibration equations of three single capacitance sensors (EC-20, EC-10, and ML2x) for tropical soils, and (ii) evaluate the accuracy and precision of t...
