摘要

Water content sensors allow spatial and temporal measurement of soil water flow. Water content sensors are widely used for assessing and validating field performance of water balance or evapotranspirative (ET) landfill final covers. In addition, they are being used for assessment of preferential flow through soils, precision farming, and migration of chemicals. Conventional time domain reflectometry (TDR) sensors which measure permittivity at a relatively high frequency (Giga Hertz range) have been historically used for measuring in-situ water contents. However, conventional TDR sensors are expensive, have a maximum cable length limitation, and require specialized electronic interfaces. Relatively new water content sensor referred to as water content reflectometers (WCR), includes all of the electronics in the head of the probe and it is cheaper than the high frequency TDR sensor. WCRs function in lower frequency (Mega Hertz range) that makes the water content measurement more sensitive to soil type, clay content, temperature, and soil electrical conductivity. In-situ water content measurement of ET covers using WCR with soil specific calibration and temperature-soil specific calibration is compared in this study. This paper presents detailed soil and temperature specific calibration for a WCR used for an ET cover test section located near Detroit, MI. A temperature-specific calibration for two different soil types was conducted in this study. The test results indicated that the effect of temperature on WCR measurement is more for soils with higher clay content than the soils with less clay content. Also, field measured data indicated that WCRs without a temperature-specific calibration underestimate the water content by about 60% during winter and overestimates the water content by about 20% during summer.
