Germany's 2018–2020 consecutive drought events resulted in multiple sectors–including
agriculture, forestry, water management, energy production, and transport–being impacted …

Long-range weather forecasts provide predictions of atmospheric, ocean and land surface
conditions that can potentially be used in land surface and hydrological models to predict …

Land surface models (LSMs) are an important tool for advancing our knowledge of the Earth
system. LSMs are constantly improved to represent the various terrestrial processes in more …

Cosmic-ray neutron sensing (CRNS) has emerged as a reliable method for soil moisture
and snow estimation. However, the applicability of this method beyond research has been …

Cosmic-ray neutron sensing (CRNS) is becoming increasingly popular for monitoring soil
water content (SWC). To retrieve SWC from observed neutron intensities, local …

This study evaluates water and energy fluxes and variables in combination with parameter
optimization of version 5 of the state-of-the-art Community Land Model (CLM5) land surface …

Above-ground cosmic-ray neutron sensing (CRNS) allows for the non-invasive estimation of
the field-scale soil moisture content in the upper decimetres of the soil. However, large parts …

Cosmic-ray neutron sensing (CRNS) allows for the estimation of root-zone soil water content
(SWC) at the scale of several hectares. In this paper, we present the data recorded by a …

Satellite-based daily soil moisture products inevitably exist the drawbacks of low-coverage
rate in global land, because of the satellite orbit covering scopes and the limitations of soil …

Profound knowledge of soil moisture and its variability plays a crucial role in hydrological
modelling to support agricultural management, flood and drought monitoring and …
