Offer Description: 

Soil-water reserves create considerable compound of total fresh-water reservoir on the Earth. They directly determine the landscape for succession of natural ecosystems as well as its suitability for particular agroecosystems. We focus on determination of the temporal dynamics of this water resource by soil moisture monitoring and vadose zone hydrological modelling. Sediments and substrates of various origin and usage also represent the three-phase porous systems, for which the determination of water-relevant characteristics is crucial if their applicability for water constructions,green roofs, retention pools, projection of sealing elements of the contructions, and other applications comes in consideration.  We offer diverse measurement equipment and calculation methods with all service necessary also with the option of sophisticated geostatistical data processing for local and regional interpretations.
