摘要
In a study of the moisture regimes of some of the most commonly occurring soils of the Central Lowlands of Scotland, three field techniques are compared. Soil tensiometers were used to measure matric suction and results are presented for a brown forest soil, a gteyed brown forest soil and a surface water gley soil. Borehole water levels are given for the surface water gley soils (and gleyed brown forest soil) for the two years under study. A close relationship between matric suction and borehole levels was established but this was not maintained once a soil moisture deficit occurred. Piezometer data was recorded and is shown to give little useful information due to the low hydraulic conductivity of the subsoils. Copyright © 1979, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
