Question

Consider a 1.2 m depth soil profile with 3 layers. The dry bulk density of each layer (top, center, bottom) is 1.20, 1.35, and 1.48 g/cm3 . The top 30-cm layer has a water content of 0.12 g/g, the center 50-cm layer has a water content of 0.18 g/g, and the bottom 40 cm layer has a water content of 0.22 g/g.What is the total amount of water in the whole profile in mm and in inches? How much water (mm and inches) do you need to apply to bring the 1.2 m soil profile to a volumetric water content of 0.35 cm3 / cm3
