abstract = {Knowledge of soil moisture dynamics and its spatial
variability is essential to improve our understanding of
root water uptake and soil moisture redistribution at the
local scale and the field scale. We investigated the
potential and limitations of electrical resistivity
tomography (ERT) to measure three-dimensional soil moisture
changes and variability in a large, undisturbed, cropped
soil column and examined the interactions between soil and
root system. Our analysis sustained the value of ERT as a
tool to monitor and quantify water contents and water
content changes in the soil, as long as the root biomass
does not influence the observed resistivity. This is shown
using a global water mass balance and a local validation
using time domain reflectometry (TDR) probes. The observed
soil moisture variability was rather high compared to values
reported in the literature for bare soil. The measured water
depletion rate, being the result of combined effects of root
water uptake and soil water redistribution, was compared
with the evaporative demand and root length densities. We
observed a gradual downward movement of the maximum water
depletion rate combined with periods of redistribution when
there was less transpiration. Finally, the maximum root
length density was observed at -70 cm depth, pointing out
that root architecture can strongly depend on soil
characteristics and states.},
