Convert neutron counts to theta.

Based on Desilets et al. (2010).

Parameters

• n (integer) – Number of neutron counts.

• n0 (integer) – Local calibration factor

• a0 (float) – Parameter

• a1 (float) – Parameter

• a2 (float) – Parameter

• rhob (float) – Soil bulk density (kg/m3)

• rhow (float) – Density of water (kg/m3)

Returns

output – Volumetric soil water content (m3/m3)

Return type

float
