Abstract

Soil is an important component of various ecosystem pertaining to micro and macro organism. It is one of the complex entity comprising of chemical elements, micro sized flora and fauna. Study of soil has diversified aspects like physical, chemical, biological, electrical, etc. The present research paper deals with the electrical properties of soil of a particular location. It also tries to have an insight on the impact of moisture on these properties as a function of frequency. For the analysis part, IM 3570 HIOKI LCR meter from Aligent Technologies is used.
