“…of a fast-moving measurement device (Andrenelli et al, 2013;Guerrero et al, 2016) could be used in parallel to complement the apparent resistivity dataset. Another example, as shown by Clément (2009), is the use of advanced inversion constrained by a priori surficial information to improve the accuracy of ERT images.…”

Abstract. Within the Critical Zone, regolith plays a key role in the fundamental hydrological function of water collection, storage, mixing and release. Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) is recognized as a remarkable tool for characterizing the geometry and properties of the regolith, overcoming limitations inherent to conventional borehole-based investigations. However, ERT measurements with a high vertical resolution remain restricted to shallow depths, essentially due to the requirement of small electrode spacing increments (ESI). Under these circumstances, the use of ERT measurements for large horizontal surveys remains cumbersome and time-consuming. Here we focus on the need to optimize the ESI parameter in order to adequately characterize the subsurface fabric. We use a set of synthetic three-layered soil–saprock/saprolite–bedrock models in combination with a field dataset. We demonstrate that oversized ESI can significantly affect our perception of shallow subsurface structures by missing important layers and increasing the ill-posed inverse problem effects. More precisely, we document how a thin surficial layer can influence inverted ERT results and cause a resistivity bias, both at the surface and at deeper horizons. To overcome this limitation, we propose adding interpolated levels of surficial apparent resistivity based on a limited number of ERT profiles with small ESI. We demonstrate that our protocol significantly improves the accuracy of ERT profiles based on large ESI. Our protocol is time and cost efficient – especially in the case of large-scale ERT surveys.

“…The success of electrical resistivity is based on its sensitivity to soil properties, including water (Friedman, 2005;Hadzick et al, 2011;Brillante et al, 2014a). It can be implemented for many purposes, like soil texture mapping (Triantafilis and Lesch, 2005); assessment of coarse element content in soils (Tetegan et al, 2012); the study of soil structure and compaction (Besson et al, 2004), soil hydraulic conductivity (Doussan and Ruy, 2009), and soil horizonation (Tabbagh et al, 2000); assessment of the effect of different tillage systems (Basso et al, 2010); map root distribution and quantification of biomass (Amato et al, 2008(Amato et al, , 2009Rossi et al, 2011) and absorption (Srayeddin and Doussan, 2009); agricultural management, especially in precision agriculture (Jaynes et al, 2005;Corwin and Lesch, 2005;Andrenelli et al, 2013;André et al, 2012); and in the evaluation of soil volume wetness and transpirable soil water both at the plot scale (Michot et al, 2003;Attia Al Hagrey, 2007;Werban et al, 2008;Garré et al, 2011Garré et al, , 2013Brillante et al, 2014a, to name but a few) and at the field scale (Besson et al, 2010), with interesting perspectives for applications in plant ecophysiology.…”

Abstract. Soil water availability deeply affects plant physiology. In viticulture it is considered a major contributor to the "terroir" effect. The assessment of soil water in field conditions is a difficult task, especially over large surfaces. New techniques are therefore required in order to better explore variations of soil water content in space and time with low disturbance and with great precision. Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) meets these requirements for applications in plant sciences, agriculture and ecology. In this paper, possible techniques to develop models that allow the use of ERT to spatialise soil water available to plants are reviewed. An application of soil water monitoring using ERT in a grapevine plot in Burgundy (north-east France) during the vintage 2013 is presented. We observed the lateral heterogeneity of ERT-derived fraction of transpirable soil water (FTSW) variations, and differences in water uptake depend on grapevine water status (leaf water potentials measured both at predawn and at solar noon and contemporary to ERT monitoring). Active zones in soils for water movements were identified. The use of ERT in ecophysiological studies, with parallel monitoring of plant water status, is still rare. These methods are promising because they have the potential to reveal a hidden part of a major function of plant development: the capacity to extract water from the soil.

“…There are works that, mainly looking for a fast and low-cost method for the identification of soil map units, (i) study the relationship between some soil features and resistivity (Andrenelli et al, 2013) or between NDVI and soil apparent electric conductivity (ECa) map obtained by electromagnetic induction (Andre et al, 2012;Martini et al, 2013) and (ii) create remote sensing soil maps using multispectral images (Lagacherie et al, 2012) or generate terrons (continuous soil-landscape units) from algorithms (Malone et al, 2014). Table 6 shows the surface area included in each of the five defined classes when creating the intersection of the three years of study for each of the four indexes.…”

Aim: Precision Viticulture (PV) is a form of vineyard management based on tools that offer winegrowers georeferenced information of each vineyard, mainly sector mapping (sub-areas) differentiated by characteristics capable of influencing vineyard usage. This provides knowledge of the variations in these sectors and PV treats each one of them in an independent and optimised manner. This allows, amongst many other possibilities, to monitor fruit ripening with the objective of performing site-specific harvest based on the characteristics of each given sector. Local variations in soil features and natural environmental factors, such as climate, lithology, geomorphology and soil, determine the units that drive or limit PV.Methods and results: In this paper, multispectral images are used. These have been obtained between veraison and harvest in three different years in order to calculate four vegetation indexes (VI) that have been used since the end of the last century to delimit homogenous sectors in vineyards: the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), the Improved Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (MSAVI), the Simple Ratio Index (SR) and the Modified Simple Ratio Index (MSR). Mapping of these VI has allowed to relate their distribution with natural environmental factors with the objective of valuing their use in the discrimination of homogenous sectors as a complement and/or alternative to traditional methodologies to terroir zoning. Results show that, in the area studied, the vineyards planted in alluvial soil and conglomerated zones, over dominant fine-loamy, mixed, mesic, Calcixerollic Xerochrept soil series, at elevations between 519 and 604 m, oriented east and on slopes less than 5º present higher values for all four indexes throughout the three years of study.Conclusions: It is precisely these environmental elements (lithology, soil, elevation, orientation and slope) and many soil features that must be relatively uniform in order to make an efficient use of the studied VI.Significance and impact of the study: The study addresses the use of VI as a companion tool to viticultural zoning, which has not been much explored at such scale level. In addition, the results obtained may lead to changes in the use of VI, which are usually used without taking into account soil and/or terrain features.
