Satellite remote sensing technology has been widely used to estimate surface soil moisture.
Numerous efforts have been devoted to develop global soil moisture products. However …

The remarkable complexity of soil and its importance to a wide range of ecosystem services
presents major challenges to the modeling of soil processes. Although major progress in soil …

Numerical models have become much more efficient, making their application to problems
increasingly widespread. User-friendly interfaces make the setup of a model much easier …

In this paper, we review various approaches for modeling preferential and non-equilibrium
flow and transport in the vadose zone. Existing approaches differ in terms of their underlying …

Accurate process‐based modeling of nonequilibrium water flow and solute transport
remains a major challenge in vadose zone hydrology. Our objective here was to describe a …

Plant root water and nutrient uptake is one of the most important processes in subsurface
unsaturated flow and transport modeling, as root uptake controls actual plant …

Abstract Models are key tools in our quest to better understand the impacts of soil
waterlogging on plant growth and crop production. Here, we reviewed the state of the art of …

Salinization and alkalinization are the most common land degradation processes,
particularly occurring in arid and semi-arid regions, where precipitation is too low to maintain …

Analysis of water and solute movement in unsaturated–saturated soil systems would greatly
benefit from an accurate and efficient numerical solution of the Richards equation. Recently …

Water shortage is the main constraint resulting in low crop yields in arid and semiarid areas,
where irrigation is essential to sustain agricultural production. Unreasonable irrigation will …
