Sentence examples for maximum soil water from inspiring English sources
Although SWC responds rapidly to precipitation (Fig. 3a), some rainfall events are of such intensity that maximum soil water holding capacity is rapidly reached and excess water is lost due to runoff.
Results showed that the maximum soil water storage (SWS) was under SS×FM treatment with values of 649.1 mm (2011 2012) and 499.4 mm (2012 2013).
In soil profiles of 60-cm depth with and without vegetation cover, the maximum soil water storage capacities were 97.2 mm and 62.8 mm, respectively.
The maximum soil water content is defined as ≤ 240 l/m3 (soil water content at field capacity) and the minimum soil water content as ≥ 70 l/m3 (amount of stagnant water).
where SWBNx is the soil water balance normalized at a given location (mm), SWBNmax is the maximum soil water balance (mm), and vegetative length is the length of the vegetative season (days).
The Control group (Ct, with a relative water content (RWC) = 80%) was constituted by plants maintained fully irrigated (maximum soil water capacity) (Additional file 1).
Four soil variables are also included in the model: minimum and maximum available soil water storage capacity (ASW) in the top 1500 mm of soil, soil fertility (FR) and soil texture.
(5 where SW pwp is the permanent wilting point, SW msw = SW pwp + 0.4 SW fc − SW pwp) is the minimum soil water content for maximum photosynthesis, and SW fc is the field capacity.
Based on marked differences in geochemistry with depth in soils and permafrost on the Alaskan North Slope, we used 87Sr/86Sr and elemental ratios in an arctic stream as tracers of increases in the maximum depth of soil water flow and therefore the integrated thaw depth in the watershed.
Hence in relative terms, the WA100 treatment was considered to be the maximum (100%) possible soil water availability, while WA70 and WA35 correspond to 70%and35%5% of the water availability respectively.
No statistical relationship could be established between tree height and soil chemistry, although Proctor et al. (1999) did find a direct proportional relationship between maximum tree height and soil water retention.
