mc_data_vwc_parameters {myClim}

Volumetric water content parameters

Description

Data frame hosting the coefficients for the conversion of TMS raw moisture units to volumetric warer content. The coefficients come from laboratory calibration for several soil types. For the best performance you should specify the soil type in case you know it and in case it could be approximated to the available calibration e.g sand, loam, loamy sand.... See mc_calc_vwc()

Usage

Format

An object of class data.frame with 13 rows and 9 columns.

Details

data.frame with columns:

• soiltype

• a

• b

• c
