28 Summary Points Soils consist of a mixture of silt, sand and clay and organic matter. Together, these components affect the soil s s texture, water holding capacity and heat capacity and conductivity. Sand has the highest heat capacity and conductivity and litter/organic matter the lowest, when dry. Heat capacity and conductivity it of all soils increase in a non-linear manner with soil moisture. The amplitude of the temporal course of temperature (daily/annual) decreases and becomes more lagged (relative to air temperature) with soil depth. Soil heat flux averaged over the course of a day or year is close to zero There is a close correspondence between mean soil temperature and mean annual air temperature.
