Publication InformationTitle: Measuring soil moisture near soil surface ... minor differences due to neutron source type Author: "Ziemer, Robert R.; Goldberg, Irving; MacGillivray, Norman A." Date: 1967 Source: "USDA Forest Service, Pacific Southwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, Research Note PSW-158, Berkeley, California. 6 p." Description: "Abstract - Moisture measurements were made in three media--paraffin, water, saturated sand--with four neutron moisture meters, each containing 226-radium-beryllium, 227-actinium-beryllium, 239-plutonium-beryllium, or 241-americium-beryllium neutron sources. Variability in surface detection by the different sources may be due to differences in neutron sources, in length of source, or both." Key Words: "PSW4351, soil moisture measurement, neutron moisture meter, soil moisture meter, soil surface moisture, vertical resolution, americium-beryllium, hydrometeorology" View and Print this Publication (214 KB) Publication Notes: Citation "Ziemer, Robert R.; Goldberg, Irving; MacGillivray, Norman A." 1967.
