FIG. 6. The temperature (T) response of {sigma}d (dielectric conductivity) as a function of {varepsilon}r'' (imaginary component of relative complex permittivity) measured at 25° ({varepsilon}r25''). The soils with relatively high {varepsilon}r'' respond as if all losses were from {sigma}. Even at lower values, the difference between the d{sigma}d/dT slope and 0.019 is small.
