Comparisons of PTFE and ceramic soil water samplers
When PTFE and ceramic soil water samplers are installed in parallel within a
distance of 10 cm from each other, the findings show that the ceramic soil
water samplers retain both phosphorus and TOC (total organic carbon) to a
larger degree than the PTFE samplers, especially at higher concentrations.
