Assessing Winter Moisture for Safe Irrigation in New Mexico
The guide explains how soil moisture depends on soil type and rainfall, noting sandy soils moisten deeper than silt or clay. One inch of rain or about ten inches of snow can moisten sandy soil to a foot, silt to six inches, and clay to three. Rapid rain increases runoff and reduces deep wetting. snow on frozen ground also loses moisture.
