What are milliSiemens per meter (mS/M)?
These are the standard units of measure of bulk soil conductivity. A Siemen is a measurement of a material’s conductance; expressing the value in milliSiemens per meter (mS/meter) removes the volume from the equation-just as a material’s density is independent of its volume. An Ohm is a measure of resistance, while Siemens are a measure of conductance. In some scientific literature the electrical measurements of the soil are expressed in resistivity–or ohm-meters.
