Code 4.7 Relative Dielectric Constant of Soils

 This module computes the real and imaginary parts of the relative dielectric constant of wet soils at temperatures between 0C and 40C, for volumetric water content between 0 and 60%, for dry soil density between 0.1 and 3.0 g/cm3, and for frequencies between 0.3 and 18 GHz.
