Time domain reflectometry (TDR) is the most widely used non-destructive method to
determine the water content of soils and other porous media. TDR equipment can be …

Interactions among soil water processes and the nitrogen (N) cycle govern biological
productivity and environmental outcomes in the earth's critical zone. Soil water influences …

Intensive agricultural cultivation in hilly catchments is subject to significant environmental
risks, because the local terrain and exceptionally fragile ecosystem usually promote high …

Hydropedology is an emerging intertwined branch of soil science and hydrology that studies
interactive pedologic and hydrologic processes and properties in the Earth's Critical Zone. It …

Global climate change has led to an increase in the number of drought events. Agricultural
droughts, which are influenced by crops, climate, and soil, are complex and challenging to …

Rainfall across mountainous areas is vital for the water supply and ecosystem services of
arid watersheds. Rain gauges are the most common method to measure rainfall, but these …

Dielectric properties are crucial in understanding the behavior of water within soil,
particularly the soil water content (SWC), as they measure a material's ability to store an …

Forest management practices play an important role in soil water conservation. However,
the soil water-holding capacity and associated drivers under different management practices …

Abstract Changes in global precipitation patterns would make wet regions more humid and
extreme precipitation events occur frequently, followed by widespread flooding. Riparian …

Soil moisture variations in space and time are critical in ecological, hydrological, pedological
and environmental studies. This study used fractal analysis to detect the spatio-temporal …
