We tried the development version of the Profile Probe last summer and I had an MSc student test it. Unfortunately the outcome was disappointing, but as a result, Delta-T have significantly re-designed the instrument. I have not had a chance to play with the new one. In principle it is a very attractive alternative to the neutron probe, but suffers from the limitation of all capacitance methods that the field of influence is very small, so it is susceptible to disturbance of the soil caused during installation of the access tube. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dr Tim Hess Institute of Water and Environment Cranfield University Silsoe, Bedford MK45 4DT, UK http://www.silsoe.cranfield.ac.uk/iwe/ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This communication is sent in confidence to the named recipient only.
