Moisture and Heat Flux Through Soil Profile

Abstract

Temperature and soil heat flow importance to plants, is based on theirinfluenceon water and nutrient uptake, seed germination, root development. On the other hand, soil moisture is one of the most important variables in the soil-plant-atmosphere exchange process, as well as for infiltration, drainage, hydraulic conductivity and irrigation studies. It was aim to study the heat flowin the soil profile at different depths in response to soil moisture. The
