Thus, can be represented by V in equation (8)m+1The soil moisture content of the layer can be known, but the soil moisture content of the previous layer must be known and cannot be measured beyond the layer. Whether the formula (8) is established or not can be judged by descending the distance of the slide block deltah to determine the thickness of the water content layer of the same soil, and the thickness and the water content of the layer are recorded in the background.
The thickness and the water content of each layer are collected through the background, and because each layer is measured in sequence and is not crossed, the change curve of the water content of the soil along the depth direction of the soil can be obtained.
