Increased irrigation water leads to changes in soil temperature and properties.
The study looked at how different irrigation methods affect soil temperature and physical properties. Increasing irrigation water leads to higher water content and lower air content in the soil. Soil properties like specific heat and thermal conductivity are influenced by these changes. More soil content and percolation result in larger thermal diffusivity and conductivity. Surface soil temperature is closely linked to thermal capacity, while interior temperature is affected by thermal diffusivity.
