Abstract

In unsaturated soils, soil water transport has both a liquid and a vapor phase. This implies the frequent exchange of mass and energy between liquid and vapor. Such a coupled soil moisture and heat transport mechanism in the top shallow soil layer reflects the land surface process, which plays a critical role in partitioning the precipitation into surface runoff, evaporation, and groundwater recharge. Simultaneously, it controls the conversion of incoming solar and atmospheric radiation into sensible, latent, and radiant heat loss. One of the key parameters in the land surface process is soil moisture.
