- Abstract
This paper taking sugar cane, pear tree and soybean plots as an example, using software SSS to fit soil shrinkage curve, studies the effect of moisture content in the field on soil shrinkage. The results show that the model parameters of SSS software could fit the measured data well(r>0.95) with relatively small error; the differences of soil shrinkage between three upland crops successfully verify that the capacity of soil shrinkage directly proportional to moisture content, particularly to initial moisture content.
