Dynamic water and heat content within soil profiles — time-varying states rather than static properties. This twig captures the current condition of the soil.
Scope
- Soil moisture: Volumetric water content, matric potential, sensor network time series
- Soil temperature: Temperature at various depths, frost depth, freeze/thaw dynamics
- Remote sensing products: Satellite-derived soil moisture (SMAP, SMOS, Sentinel-1)
- Drought indicators: Soil moisture deficit, plant-available water stress
