3) A soil bacteria wishes to open a health spa where the air is not too dry but the premises don't flood frequently either. She is hoping for a soil with a relative humidity between 50-60%. A lawyer acquaintance (a real fungus) is trying to sell her some property. He boasts that the area has a year-round matric potential of about -6.5 MPa, an electrical conductivity (in the pore-water) of 5 dS/m, and a comfortable temperature of 15 oC. The hard-sell lawyer is pressuring her for a quick decision. Does the property meet her requirements?
