The surface elevation of a shrinking soil provided good estimates of the change in profile water content under alfalfa. Surface shrinkage was found to change linearly with water content as measured by neutron and gamma attenuation devices. Extracted soil cores were tested in the laboratory to obtain
## Abstract The portable surface capacitance insertion probe was used to measure the __in situ__ water content of near surface soil layers. The probe readings were calibrated against gravimetric samples collected over a wide range of water contents, and were found to be very closely correlated. The
