EC of soil pore water

[Max A. Hilhorst <m.a.hilhorst@imag.dlo.nl>]

Dear all,
I want to inform you about a new sensor available from Delta-T Devices. It
is for the first time possible to measure the conductivity (EC) of the water
in the soil pores in situ. Thus not the bulk EC, but just the EC of the
fluid in the soil matrix! It is a good alternative for taking samples. You
can obtain more information from Delta-T devices on website
http://www.delta-t.co.uk/. Choose "news", "New Pore Water Conductivity
Probe!" and next the "SigmaProbe".
Regards,

Max A. Hilhorst
