If you’ve got a smart home, or you just want to know how soaked your garden is getting in the winter, you might want to measure rainfall. There are a bunch of ways to go about it, and this capacitive ...

Abstract: This paper presents a wireless passive spherical capacitive-based resonant sensor for in-situ underground soil moisture monitoring. The sensor features a hollow spherical structure housing a ...

Soil moisture strongly influences evapotranspiration, surface temperature, precipitation feedback, and plant physiological status, and therefore regulates land–atmosphere interactions, hydrological ...

Accurate measurement of soil NO₃⁻-N is essential for precision fertilization and stable crop yields. Real-time monitoring of ...

A new smart platform invented by Purdue University researchers to wirelessly monitor subsoil health could change the ...

Leveraging tools from seismology — the study of earthquakes and the inside of our planet — the Earth Rover Program aims to provide critical data on the health of soil. Humans, and terrestrial life in ...
