Air-dry is the state of dryness of soil at equilibrium with the moisture content in the surrounding atmosphere and depends on relative humidity and ambient temperature.
Air-dried is sometimes used, but even Webster's Dictionary gives air-dry as the adjective.
This response is not to contradict Andrew's response - it's just meant to clarify terminology used in soil science.
