One-Compartment Soil Water Model for Forestlands in Water-Limited Regions

Authors: Saike Liu, Zhongsheng Guo and Mancai Guo

Abstract: Understanding the vertical distribution dynamics of soil moisture is essential for estimating soil water resources, controlling soil degradation and regulating the relationship between soil water and plant growth in water-limited regions. There have been a few studies of the vertical change of soil moisture in forestlands, but there are few models that can suitably describe the vertical change of soil moisture under different conditions.
