| Summary: | Water content of soil is what defines soil moisture, which is held in between the voids
of the particles of soil and it plays an important role in the assessment of different
components of water and energy balance. Soil moisture acts as the utmost source of
water for purposes such as agriculture, and vegetation of natural plants, which
influences a number of vital processes including the growth of plants, production in
agriculture and a number of soil processes. The dynamics of soil moisture can be
modified by a number of factors such as climate change, properties of soil, topography,
and the characteristics of the landscape itself. In this study, the author is aiming to find
the relationship between two main parameters, which are the distribution of soil
moisture and how it is affected by the variation of landscape characteristics. |
