Abstrakt: A field experiment was conducted to evaluate soil water, water table, and soil temperature relations in an area having a high water table, saline soil, and artesian water. The water table during winter lowered owing to upward migration of ground water toward the colder surface soil. However, the water content of the 2.7-meter soil profile increased in an amount of water exceeding that accountable by the drop in the water table, precipitation, and horizontal flow. The additional water was most likely contributed from the artesian aquifer underlying the area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
