The EQ3 Equitensiometer (EQ3) measures soil matric potential and temperature. Soil matric potential is the negative pressure (or suction) required to extract water from between the matrix of soil particles. It is an important indication of plant water stress. The value of soil matric potential measured depends mainly on the quantity of water present and the make-up of the soil, though it is also ...
