why does dry soil is used when measuring the moisture content? |
the dry weight is constant over time, whereas the moist or wet weight can change over time. By measuring the moisture content of dry soil, you establish the "zero moisture" state or the soil's dry weight. This allows you to accurately calculate the amount of water present in the soil at any given time by measuring its weight when it's not dry and then subtracting the dry weight. |
