Compare % water holding capacity of soil collected from different habitat
conditions. The variation in water holding capacity is due to varying
proportion of sand, silt and clay in the soil of different habitats. Soil with
very high proportion of sand have very low water holding capacity due to
large pore spaces between the particles which enables the water to percolate
freely into deeper layers leaving upper layers practically dry. In clay soil,
due to very small size of the pore spaces (fine capillaries) the water is retained
in the capillary spaces as capillary water. In these soil the water does not
percolate freely. Soil with more or less equal proportion of sand, silt and clay
(loam soil) combines the properties of sand and clay and therefore has
optimum water holding capacity and optimum soil-air for root growth.
