This paper presents a community effort to develop good practice guidelines for the validation
of global coarse-scale satellite soil moisture products. We provide theoretical background, a …

Cold regions, including high-latitude and high-altitude landscapes, are experiencing
profound environmental changes driven by global warming. With the advance of earth …

Over one-third of the global land area undergoes a seasonal transition between
predominantly frozen and non-frozen conditions each year, with the land surface …

A new global estimate of surface turbulent fluxes, latent heat flux (LE) and sensible heat flux
(H), and gross primary production (GPP) is developed using a machine learning approach …

Two basic properties of soil moisture, namely water content and its phase status
(freeze/thaw, referred to as F/T), strongly influence the pattern and efficiency of water and …

Triple collocation (TC) is a novel method for quantifying the uncertainties of three data sets
with mutually independent errors and has been widely used over different geographical …

Transpiration (T) constitutes a significant portion of total terrestrial evapotranspiration in
ecosystems and functions as the connection between the water and energy cycle. Despite …

Seasonal soil freeze/thaw (FT) state transition plays a critical role in the range of ecosystem,
hydrological and biogeochemical processes. A thorough and large-scale validation of …

The main objective of this study is to combine three reanalysis-based evaporation (E) and
transpiration (T) estimates (ie, ERA5-Land, GLDAS, and MERRA2) to improve the accuracy …

Multi-source merging is an established tool for improving large-scale precipitation estimates.
Existing merging frameworks typically use gauge-based precipitation error statistics and …
