Examples of moisture

• Movements may arise from structural deformation, or may be induced by temperature variations or changes in moisture content.

• The actual moisture content of samples of waste was measured using standard laborator y conditions.

• Therefore, it seems that germination conditions such as high and fluctuating temperatures and moisture strengthen the dormancy of deeply dormant seeds.

• These differences may render canopy moisture storage of the humid evergreen broad-leaved forest lower than that of montane rain forests.

• However, this radical moisture can be corrupted or destroyed.

• However, the temperature and moisture requirements for loss of viability during solarization are less clear.

• They further suggest a modified relationship for the log of the mean viability period as a function of storage temperature and moisture content.

• Thus, some environmental differences, such as fungal attack or soil moisture, do not seem to influence this process of seed viability loss.
