Overview
- The dielectric measurement and behaviour of wet soil is discussed from theoretical and experiment point of view
- Techniques depending upon microwave methods are described in detail
- Remote sensing methods (passive and active) are described to measure the soil moisture
- There is a chapter on Synthetic Aperture radar for measurement of soil moisture
- On the basis of experimental data various proposed models are presented and compared
- Presents a comprehensive account of physical aspects of soil moisture and its method of measurement
