Determination of Soil Pore Water Salinity Using an FDR Sensor Working at Various Frequencies up to 500 MHz

Determination of Soil Pore Water Salinity Using an FDR Sensor Working at Various Frequencies up to 500 MHz

This paper presents the application of a frequency-domain reflectometry (FDR) sensor designed for soil salinity assessment of sandy mineral soils in a wide range of soil moisture and bulk electrical conductivity, through the determination of soil complex dielectric permittivity spectra in the freque...
