Space-time modeling of soil moisture: Stochastic rainfall forcing with heterogeneous vegetation

open access: yes, 2006
The present paper complements that of Isham et al. (2005), who introduced a space-time soil moisture model driven by stochastic space-time rainfall forcing with homogeneous vegetation and in the absence of topographical landscape effects.

Nematode survival in relation to soil moisture

open access: yes, 1973
Established nematode populations are very persistent in the soil. It is known that they need sufficient soil moisture for movement, feeding and reproduction (fig. 5), and that there are adverse soil moisture conditions which they cannot survive.
