Soil moisture-vegetation interaction from near-global in-situ soil moisture measurements

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Although the interactions between soil moisture (SM) and vegetation dynamics have been extensively investigated, most of previous findings are derived from satellite-observed and/or model-simulated SM data, which inevitably include multiple sources of ...

A New Method for Generating the SMOPS Blended Satellite Soil Moisture Data Product without Relying on a Model Climatology

Remote Sensing, 2022
Soil moisture operational product system (SMOPS) is developed by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to provide the real-time blended soil moisture (SM) for numeric weather prediction and national water model applications. However, all

PINN‐SM: A Physics‐Informed Neural Networks Model for Vadose Zone Soil Moisture Profile Prediction

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation
Abstract Accurate prediction and monitoring of soil water content in the vadose zone (VZSWC) is important, yet challenging, for sustainable management of water resources. Although machine learning algorithms have shown promise, given limited and noisy subsurface data, they often struggle with overfitting, poor generalization, and ...

Evaluating Satellite Soil Moisture Datasets for Drought Monitoring in Australia and the South-West Pacific

Remote Sensing, 2022
Soil moisture (SM) is critical in monitoring the time-lagged impacts of agrometeorological drought. In Australia and several south-west Pacific Small Island Developing States (SIDS), there are a limited number of in situ SM stations that can adequately ...

Understanding Soil Moisture – Precipitation (SM-P) Coupling over India from a Compound Flood Risk Assessment Perspective

, 2021
Compound event research has gained significant momentum over the past few years. Traditionally risk assessment studies considered either one climatic driver or process at a time. However, it is now being recognised that it is the combination of multiple drivers and their statistical dependencies that lead to aggravated, non-linear impacts.

Agar‐Based Optical Sensing System With a Phosphorescent Grid Pattern for Measuring Stress Distributions of Root Growth Using the Sampling Moiré Method

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This paper presents an agar medium with a phosphorescent grid pattern that measures the stress distribution generated by growing plant roots. Using phosphorescence, the system optically separates the grid pattern from the root and extracts the grid deformation.

Extra Climate Benefits From Afforestation Due to Reduced Forest Fragmentation in China

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Afforestation in China reduced forest fragmentation in 2015, transforming 51.8 M ha of edge forests into interior forests. This enhanced carbon sequestration (1.4±0.2 Pg CO2e, a cooling biogeochemical effect), while reduced albedo (−0.9 Pg CO2e, a warming biophysical effect) partially offset the gain, yielding a net extra climate benefit of ...
