How many millimetres (equivalent depth) of water are

Biology

Alla [95]2 years ago
6 0

The equivalent depth of water in the soil is 270 mm and the volumetric water content of soil is 5625 cubic meter/ 1.5 hectare of soil.

<h3>How can equivalent depth of water in a soil be calculate?</h3>

The equivalent depth of water in a soil is calculated using the formula below:

  • equivalent depth of water = water content × depth of soil

The depth of soil profile 1 = 1 m = 1000 mm

The depth of soil profile 2 = 600 mm

Equivalent depth of water in the soil = 15% × 1000 mm + 20% × 600 mm

Equivalent depth of water in the soil = 150 mm + 120 mm

Equivalent depth of water in the soil = 270 mm of water

The volumetric water content of the soil is calculated using the formula below:

  • Volumetric water content = water content × bulk density of soil/density of water × height of soil

Height of soil profile 1 = 1 m

Height of soil profile 2 = 0.6 m

Volumetric water content of soil profile 1 = 15% × 1300/1000 × 1 m = 0.195 cubic meter/square metre of soil

Volumetric water content of soil profile 1 = 20% × 1500/1000 × 0.6 m = 0.18 cubic meter/square metre of soil

Total Volumetric water content of soil = 0.18 + 0.195 = 0.375 cubic meter/square metre of soil

Converting to cubic meter/hectare of soil:

0.375 cubic meter/square metre of soil

1.5 hectares = 15000 square metre

Volumetric water content of soil = 0.375 × 15000 cubic meter/ 1.5 hectare of soil

Volumetric water content of soil = 5625 cubic meter/ 1.5 hectare of soil

Therefore, the equivalent depth of water in the soil is 270 mm of water and the volumetric water content of soil is 5625 cubic meter/ 1.5 hectare of soil.

The fossil record of birds is incomplete because bird skeletons are
Bogdan [553]
Bird skeletons are very delicate, and therefore, difficult to be preserved.  The bones of the birds are soft. The small animals are very prone to physicochemical as well as biological decay. This is why the fossil record of bird is incomplete and well-preserved fossils of birds are rare to find, except at a few unusual sites.

Obiotic factors<br>affect the ecosystem?​
sergejj [24]

Answer:

hope you like it

Explanation:

An abiotic factor is a non-living part of an ecosystem that shapes its environment. In a terrestrial ecosystem, examples might include temperature, light, and water. In a marine ecosystem, abiotic factors would include salinity and ocean currents. Abiotic and biotic factors work together to create a unique ecosystem.
