Ecohydrology of groundwater-dependent ecosystems: 2. Stochastic soil moisture dynamics
[1] In groundwater-dependent ecosystems, interactions between rainfall, water table fluctuations, and vegetation are exerted through the soil water content. The dynamics of soil moisture, in fact, are strongly coupled to fluctuations of the water table and, together, they control the overall ecosystem dynamics. We propose here a simple process-based stochastic model for the study of soil moistu...
متن کاملEcohydrology of groundwater-dependent ecosystems: 1. Stochastic water table dynamics
[1] Areas with a relatively shallow water table are environments where the groundwater plays a key role on the ecosystem function, and important interactions exist between hydrology and ecosystem processes. We propose here an analytical model to study the interactions between rainfall, water table, and vegetation in groundwater-dependent ecosystems. The water table dynamics are studied as a ran...
متن کاملModels of soil moisture dynamics in ecohydrology: A comparative study
[1] An accurate description of plant ecology requires an understanding of the interplay between precipitation, infiltration, and evapotranspiration. A simple model for soil moisture dynamics, which does not resolve spatial variations in saturation, facilitates analytical expressions of soil and plant behavior as functions of climate, soil, and vegetation characteristics. Proper application of s...
متن کاملEstimating profile soil moisture and groundwater variations using GRACE and Oklahoma Mesonet soil moisture data
[1] In this study we estimate a time series of regional groundwater anomalies by combining terrestrial water storage estimates from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission with in situ soil moisture observations from the Oklahoma Mesonet. Using supplementary data from the Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (DOE ARM) network, we develop an empi...
متن کاملCoupled stochastic dynamics of water table and soil moisture in bare soil conditions
[1] The soil water content plays a fundamental role in a number of important environmental processes, including those involved in the water cycle, vegetation dynamics, soil biogeochemical cycles, and land-atmosphere interactions. Despite the recent efforts spent in the analytical modeling of the stochastic soil moisture dynamics in dryland ecosystems, the probabilistic characterization of the s...
