Soil Electrical Conductivity Study

The purpose of this study is to determine if compaction has an effect on soil electrical conductivity (EC). The test site has a Mollic Epiaqualf (Hoytville soil series) that has been treated with 2 levels of compaction. Volumetric moisture and penetrometer data will be gathered concurrently with EC measurements. Electromagnetic induction and electrode array resistivity are the two forms of EC data to be collected. Data will be analyzed to compare and contrast and identify principle components that effect EC output change.
