–1 , the negative value of the temperature correction factor indicating a decrease in the water content measurements with increasing temperature. These values agreed well with the correction factor measure in sandy soils: –0.00269θC–1. In soils with large specific surface i.e., clayey and organic soils, however, the temperature dependence was significantly lower. Large specific surface combined with high soil solution electrical conductivity resulted in a positive correction factor, i.e., water content measurements increased with increases in temperature. The temperature dependence of the bulk electrical conductivity was investigated using different soils and soil solutions. The temperature dependence was close to that of the soil solution and was independent of soil texture.
