Announcement - www.sowacs.com launched.



The web site for Soil Water Content Sensors, (sowacs) has now been launched at:

                   www.sowacs.com

The new sowacs web site is the virtual resource for all types of soil water
content sensors, and includes the following categories:
     SENSORS (Tensiometers; Time domain reflectometry; Capacitance (or FDR);
Velocity Differentiation Domain; Gypsum Blocks / Electrical Resistance;
Granular Matrix  sensors;  Heat Dissipation; Soil Conductivity sensors;
Dasgupta's voltammetric; Psychrometry;  Neutron Probes;  SH3; Acoustic
methods; Phase Transmission method); Infra red sensors;   Other )

Within each of these, and attempt is made to cover
the basic principle of the sensor;  Photographs;  Basic Principle;
Advantages;  Disadvantages;  General;  Manufacturers/Suppliers;  Literature;
Details;  Other 

     COMPARISONS between sensor types and makes
     SUPPLIERS a list of vendors and distributors around the globe

      ABOUT the sowacs web site and email discussion list
      CONTACT  details,  a  SITE MAP and. of course,  ADVERTS 

There are  NEW ENTRIES, a  FEATURE article/company. These then become
HOSTED PAGES 

Another popular resource are the  LITERATURE  collections grouped by sensor
category.

       
There is SUBSCRIBE INFO on the EMAIL DISCUSSION GROUP, and  ARCHIVES since 1995.
To subscribe send
        subscribe sowacs
in the body of a message to 
        majordomo@aqua.ccwr.ac.za

Also covered are  WIRELESS communications, IRRIGATION SCHEDULING, other
LINKS  and OTHER SENSORS 

The site costs are being met by site sponsors: Campbell Scientific Inc, but
further advertising by means of feature articles, etc  can still be
negotiated directly with myself.

Despite many months of preparation, planning and late-night work, there are
still many gaps and possibly more than a few errors!

Sowacs relies on your feedback and input to keep it current, accurate and
interesting.
Please send your comments, corrections and criticisms to me Bruce Metelerkamp at
