Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-007379
The ratio of the mass of water to the total mass of a material, expressed as a percentage. This metric is frequently used in soil science and material analysis to describe the water content of a sample. It is typically determined by weighing a sample before and after drying, with the difference representing the mass of water removed.
