Abstract

The effects of cardinal orientation of experimental plots on soil temperature were studied. The results indicated that the experimental plot located at 15°S latitude, with a 5% slope, had distinct soil temperatures in the north face as compared with the south face. The soil temperature data was coherent with previously published soil radiation measurements.
