What is the depth of the deep well?

It depends on how deep the well is.


How do you collect soil samples?

Usually you use a core drill and remove a sample to whatever depth you require.r


How far beneath the earth surface does each cross section of soil show?

1. Are you talking about a specific cross section which you have? Without seeing it, there is no way to answer the question. 2. Are you talking about in general? It depends on how deep the soil samples were obtained or if in a trench-type sampling, it depends on what you are seeing. For example, if your plug sample is only 6" deep then that is as deep as the cross section shows! If you dig a trench 4' deep and then look at the side and see that the soil extends down to 18", then the cross section would show 18" as the depth.

Are crops worse if soil is tightly bound together or compacted?

Absolutely! Soil should be loosened to a healthy depth for that crop, in most cases, at least 12 inches. It also helps to add organic matter such as composted animal manure and blend it in to that same depth. This will allow the crop roots to "explore" the maximum amount of soil possible in their search for nutrients.

What is volume sampling rate?

Sampling rate is a very complex thing to understand. Sampling rate does not have a specific volume, but it mainly depends on what was recorded or how it was recorded. Also what sampling rate was used may even be involved. A digital recording is governed by two things, the sample rate and the bit depth. A sound wave is determined by two things also, the frequency of the signal and it's amplitude (How loud it is at that instant per wave). To convert from a sound wave to a digital format we have to examine the current frequency and amplitude and convert these analogue values to digital ones. The rate at which we do this is called the sample rate. At the same instant we sample the volume which is stored in a value called the bit depth. The bit depth relates to a binary value of which for instance 16 bit represents a value in decimal from 0 - 32765. Obviously the bigger the bit depth the larger the value number can be stored & therefore the higher resolution of the amplitude waveform is available.

What is a YSI used for?

A YSI is a sampling device that can be used to measure parameters in the water column such as temperature, salinity, depth, pH, oxygen, turbidity, and chlorophyll.


What is the difference between liquid pressure and depth?

Liquid pressure depends on depth. It can be calculated from liquid density times depth.
