How does this product work? what is the science? explain it to me as if i had a phd.

Moisture meters use the principle of electrical resistance to measure the conductivity of the soil. 1 simply put- it is because water conducts electricity well, high moisture content in the soil is measured by higher electrical currents indicate drier soil. I hope this is the answer you are looking for.
