Effect of the Soil Matric Potential on the Germination Capacity of Prosopis chilensis, Quillaja saponaria and Cryptocarya alba from Contrasting Geographical Origins [PDF]
Plants, 2022 As a consequence of the megadrought in Central Chile, it is expected that most of the distribution of woody species will be narrowed in the northern limits because of restrictions imposed by soil matric potential on seed germination.

Measurement of the matric potential of soil water in the rhizosphere [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2013 The availability of soil water, and the ability of plants to extract it, are important variables in plant research. The matric potential has been a useful way to describe water status in a soil-plant system. In soil it is the potential that is derived from the surface tension of water menisci between soil particles.

Hydrodynamic Characterisation of the Inland Valley Soils of the Niger Delta Area for Sustainable Agricultural Water Management [PDF]
SensorsSince farmers in the inland valley region of the Niger Delta mostly rely on experience rather than empirical evidence when it comes to irrigation, flood irrigation being the most popular technique, the region’s agricultural sector needs more efficient ...
