Soil moisture refers to the water present in the uppermost part of a field soil and is a state
variable controlling a wide array of ecological, hydrological, geotechnical, and …

Cosmic ray probes are an emerging technology to continuously monitor soil water content at
a scale significant to land surface processes. However, the application of this method is …

The cosmic-ray method for measuring soil moisture, used in the Cosmic-Ray Soil Moisture
Observing System (COSMOS), relies on the exceptional ability of hydrogen to moderate fast …

Core Ideas Numerous studies have been conducted to develop and examine the accuracy
