The global distribution and dynamics of surface soil moisture

Nature Geoscience, 2017
Surface soil moisture has a direct impact on food security, human health and ecosystem function. It also plays a key role in the climate system, and the development and persistence of extreme weather events such as droughts, floods and heatwaves. However, sparse and uneven observations have made it difficult to quantify the global distribution and ...

Variability of surface soil moisture at the watershed scale

Water Resources Research, 2004
Data from the Washita '92 experiment illustrate the spatial and temporal variability of surface soil moisture. Statistical moments revealed that there is no significant skewness or kurtosis in the distribution. Over the drying period the variance decreased with time; however, the coefficient of variation did not significantly change, indicating that ...

MEASUREMENT OF SOIL MOISTURE NEAR THE SURFACE USING A NEUTRON MOISTURE METER

Journal of Soil Science, 1975
Summary Correction factors for neutron moisture meter measurements near the soil surface have been established from readings at several depths taken before and after the removal of 10 cm of surface soil. In determining the factors it is assumed initially that a uniform soil moisture profile exists.
