• Different types of soil presents different ability to hold<br />
water. Water is easily lost in sandy soil due to the<br />
loose structure, relatively large pores and gaps of the<br />
soil; clay soil holds water well for the compactness<br />
and relatively small pores and gaps of the soil. Soil<br />
water is both the main source of plant nutrients and<br />
the medium for the transport to other environmental<br />
elements such as hydrosphere and biosphere.
