The sensor that was developed actually measured air permeability of the soil, which is an indicator of soil compaction. The sensor measured permeability by injecting a constant flow rate of air into the soil from a tine, and measuring the pressure resistance. The sensor-soil interface was two orifices in a vertical plate mounted on the bottom of a sub-soiling shank. A Global Positioning System receiver was paired with the sensor to record position coordinates for the compaction measurements. LabView software was used to control the sensor and record the data. The sensor output was compared to data obtained from a recording cone penetrometer. The sensor was capable of measuring compaction trends on a field scale, but is affected by soil type and moisture content. 2000 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1202401877 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1202401877 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
