5.7. Describe the two common methods of determining salt content in soil
using electrical conductivity.
5.8. Soil water content can be measured in the field using a number different
types and arrangements of electrodes. Describe two of these methods
in some detail.
5.9. Describe some of the limiting or completing factors involved in using
ISE electrodes in making measurements on soil or soil extracts.
5.10. What types of metal electrodes are best suited to making electrical measurements
in soils?
