The thermal properties of soil are a component of soil physics that has found important uses in engineering, climatology and agriculture. These properties influence how energy is partitioned in the soil profile. While related to soil temperature, it is more accurately associated with the transfer of energy (mostly in the form of heat) throughout the soil, by radiation, conduction and convection. The main soil thermal properties are: * Volumetric heat capacity, SI Units: J∙m−3∙K−1 * Thermal conductivity, SI Units: W∙m−1∙K−1 * Thermal diffusivity, SI Units: m2∙s−1
