The paper presents the technological set-up and calibration of a system based on
impedance spectroscopy for measuring water content in partially saturated soils. The …

In this article we respond to the comments made by Chavanne et al., who have
questioned:(i) the name of the technique used;(ii) the ability of the system to determine both …

Groundwater often represents the main and most precious source of drinking water supply
for the population. In recent decades, overexploitation, uncontrolled anthropogenic actions …

The article comments on claims made by Rêgo et al. about the sensor they developed to
determine soil water content and its salinity via the admittance measurement of electrodes …

The use of low-cost embedded devices with ubiquitous connectivity systems is a possible
strategy to monitor the consumption of water used in agriculture even in countries that do not …
