AIR PERMEABILITY FROM A MOVING VEHICLE -- FEASIBILITY STUDY

Theory is developed to describe air flow from a moving air source in soil. An air probe of special design is tested in soil of three types at different moisture contents and bulk densities to determine its potential as a tool for field measurement of soil air permeability from a moving vehicle.
