[ECOLOG-L] Soil Moisture Meter for Sand

[Lukas Bell-Dereske]

Hey Ecolog,

     I am looking for a portable soil moisture meter for use in a dry Great
Lake dune ecosystem. The meter needs to be accurate at low moisture levels
and have probes at least 40 cm long. We have a Spectrum FieldScout TDR 100
with 20 cm probes but a previous study by a lab mate found the probes were
not long enough to reach the water table. I would appreciate any suggestions
for soil moisture meters. Thank you all for your time
