A tensiometer was installed at a 30cm depth and had a matric potential reading of -36kPa.
The bulk density of the soil was found to be 1310 kg m-3 and the retentivity curve for this
soil is shown below:
10.1 Using the tensiometer reading, calculate the existing volumetric water content of the soil
(assume a water density of 1000 kg m-3)? [3]
10.2 What is the equivalent depth of water in the 30 cm depth of soil? [2]
