Non-invasive imaging of soil processes

Sturrock, Craig J.

Abstract

Non-invasive imaging techniques provide a unique ability to investigate soil processes with minimal disturbance to its natural state. This chapter provides an overview of the key non-invasive techniques, their operating principals and their areas of application to quantify soil processes. e.g. structural development of soil pore networks, plant root system architecture, rhizosphere interactions, water and chemical movement. The digital nature of the data integrates well with structural modelling approaches of soil processes from both laboratory and field-based experiments.
