Abstract
The Water Scarcity is a prominent feature in Arid and Semi-Arid region. Soil moisture content is significant factor in deciding vegetation growth and also affects the performance of any water harvesting system in place. This paper evaluates the interrelationship of Soil properties with Soil Moisture content. The study covers about 13 soil Samples from Single Watershed. The soil properties covered in the study are Conductivity, pH, Bulk Density, Dry Density, Specific gravity, organic content, void ratio, and Moisture Content. Multiple linear regression analysis was done to determine significance of each soil properties for soil moisture content as individual and as whole. Modelling was done based on soil characteristics to predict Soil Moisture. Principal Component Analysis was performed to identify most significant soil properties responsible for variation of prediction of Soil Moisture content. The Correlation between location topography and Moisture Content was obtained through Cluster Analysis.
