Rootzone Soil Moisture Dynamics Using Terrestrial Water‐Energy Coupling
A lack of high‐density rootzone soil moisture (θRZ) observations limits the estimation of continental‐scale, space‐time contiguous θRZ dynamics. We derive a proxy of daily θRZ dynamics — active rootzone degree of saturation (SRZ) — by recursive low‐pass (
