- Observation Most soil moisture extraction occurred in the upper soil surface layer
- Observation About 70% of available soil moisture was extracted by roots from the first 0-30 cm
- Observation About 30% of available soil moisture was extracted from the second foot of soil profile
- Observation Moisture extraction by roots decreased substantially with soil depth
