3rd NAFE Workshop 17-18 Sept. 2007
Objective
Derive/validate a calibration equation for:
• Roving HP measurements (HDAS)
• Continuous HP measurements (stations)
Hydraprobe (HP)
Dielectric sensor at 50MHz of 0-5cm soil
Measure real (εr -> SM) and
imaginary (εi -> SAL) dielectric constant (DC) + Temperature
Output is 4 voltages:
V1, V2, V3 (DC) and V4 (temperature)
Calibration data sets
NAFE’06 field measurements:
1 volumetric sample at 5 points in each of the 6 farms, every sampling day + 1 (or more) HP measurement
Complementary laboratory experiments– Goulburn soils (Lab’05, Daniele Biasioni)– Yanco soils (Lab’06, Hanna Meade)– Goulburn soils (Temp’06, Rocco Panciera)
Calibration approaches
Comparison HP / Grav measurements
Two different approaches:– Polynomial interpolation– General (multi-data) equations
Account for a range of:– Moisture conditions (linearity)– Soil types (from sand to clay)– Other parameters (temperature, ?)

Grav
Calibration
1. Direct comparison between HP response (silt) and grav measurements
2. Estimate temperature effect on DC measurements
3. Test different calibration approaches:• Polynomial fit• Multi-data equations (from measured DC)
4. Apply calibration equations to • Roving measurements• Station-based HP data

Conclusions
Seyfrield et al.’s equation validated with NAFE’06 data set
Developed a temperature correction for the measured real DC from lab data
Calibration applied to the NAFE data sets (about 17000 measurements for NAFE’06)
The application of this calib to all the new sites (20) in the Murrumbidgee is underway
