- Abstract:

From the study of calibrating neutron probe in the loess hilly region,making use of hierarchical section method,line correlation,multinomial correlation and data smoothing method,we got the three calibration equations:the calibration equation of soil layer between 0cm and 30cm,use multinomial correlation,and the correlation coefficient is 0.93;the others two calibration equations use line correlation,and both of correlation coefficients are more than 0.93.The result showed that:using the above methods together can enhance the accuracy of calibration equation,it also confirms the neutron probe is a reliable and feasible way of long term measuring soil moisture in the loess hilly region.In the meantime,comparing with volume weighted smoothing method,the three-dot smoothing method has more actual applied meaning.
