Capillary conductivity measurements in peat soils
1936
Richards, L.A. | Wilson, B.D.
An apparatus of improved design was used in measuring the capillary conductivity of water in peat soils. A description of the apparatus is given. At low tensions the soils were found to possess capillary conductivities greater than those that have been reported for mineral soils. However, the capillary conductivity was found to become zero at lower tensions in the two peat soils studied than has been reported for mineral soils. Difficulty was experienced in measuring the capillary conductivity of peat soils because of the length of time required for the moisture content of the soils to reach an equilibrium value at a given capillary tension.
