Abstract

This paper presents the movement of the immediate soil moisture measured at three depths in different forms fluvisol land in the Middle Danube region during 2012. It also shows the level of underground water level of the Danube for the year. In all investigated fluvisol set the same trend dynamics of groundwater regardless of the depth measurement. It is notable that the immediate soil moisture content depends on the precipitation and level of groundwater.


Keywords: fluvisol, soil moisture, groundwater, Danube river
