| dc.description.abstract | Surface soil moisture is an essential climate variable (ECV; https://gcos.wmo.int/en/essential-climate-variables/soilmoisture) which is monitored to inform our understanding of changes in the atmosphere and earth. Soil moisture is also an important indicator, in addition to vegetation and soil types, of the presence of a wetland. | |
