The dataset contains thermal properties of soil such as thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, temperature and specific heat capacity in an agricultural farm within the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. The data were acquired in forty (40) sampling points using thermal analyzer called KD-2 Pro. Soil samples taken at these sampling points were analyzed in the laboratory for their moisture content following the standard reference of American Association of State Highway and Transport Officials (AASHTO) T265. The data were acquired within the first and second weeks in the month of April, 2012. Statistical analyses were performed on the data set to understand the data. The data is made available publicly because thermal properties of soils have significant role in understanding the water retention capacity of soil and could be helpful for proper irrigation water management.
该数据集包含尼日利亚伊巴丹大学一个农场土壤的热学性质，如导热系数、热扩散率、温度和比热容。数据是使用名为KD - 2 Pro的热分析仪在四十（40）个采样点采集的。按照美国国家公路与运输官员协会（AASHTO）T265的标准参考，对在这些采样点采集的土壤样本进行实验室分析，测定其含水量。数据于2012年4月的第一周和第二周采集。对该数据集进行了统计分析以了解这些数据。该数据已公开提供，因为土壤的热学性质在理解土壤保水能力方面具有重要作用，并且可能有助于进行适当的灌溉用水管理。
