Fig. 4. Effect of temperature on measured real dielectric constant ({epsilon}r) for the three sensors tested (S1, S2, and S3), in oven-dry (dry) and near saturated (wet) soil conditions for (a) sand soil, (b) Summit soil, (c) Sheep Creek soil, and (d) Foothill soil. Dense concentrations of points occur where the rate of temperature change was slow.
