Dear Experts on Soil Solution,
I have a question regarding the life span of the tension lysimeters. In Switzerland, our lysimeters still run well; however, I wonder what the “normal” life span of those lysimeters is. For how long do you use your lysimeters and do you see signs of ageing?
Further, I wonder in case of renewal how long it takes for installation effects to flatten out. In Switzerland, the data analysed by Elisabeth showed that it is a good idea to remove the first year. Do you have any other experience?
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Best wishes form Switzerland and take care,
Katrin
