چکیده
China is a country seriously suffering from the lack of water resource, especially the north of China (a dense area) where there are more agricultural production than other places in China. Therefore, some have become most important problems which should be settled down right now for precision agriculture: saving the water of agriculture, optimizing the water for cropland as well as making use of soil moisture effectively. To realise the potential of soil-moisture, protect the water source , strengthen the management of the soil moisture of farm, design the irrigation and drainage, monitor the soil-moisture, etc. ,the data collection of soil moisture and the study on how to could provide the far-reaching and academic significance of guidance together with higher regional and practical use value. The IDW, Spline and Kriging in the Spatial Analyst of ArcGIS 9.0 are applied on drawing the distributing map of soil moisture and it also offers the theoretical foundation for the connection between studying soil moisture and enhancing the yield.

Spatial and temporal soil moisture and drought variability in the Upper Colorado River Basin
This research investigates the interannual variability of soil moisture as related to large-scale climate variability and also evaluates the spatial and temporal variability of modeled deep layer (40–140 cm) soil moisture in the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB). A three layers hydrological model VIC-3L (Variable Infiltration Capacity Model – 3 layers) was used to generate soil moisture in the ...

ABSTRACT- The information on the spatial properties of soil is vital to improve soil management and to increase the crop productivity. Geostatistical analysis technique is one of the most important methods for determining the spatial properties of soil. The aim of this study was to investigate spatial variability of soil chemical and physical attributes for field management in eastern Shiraz, I...
متن کاملInfluence of Surface Roughness Spatial Variability and Temporal Dynamics on the Retrieval of Soil Moisture from SAR Observations
Radar-based surface soil moisture retrieval has been subject of intense research during the last decades. However, several difficulties hamper the operational estimation of soil moisture based on currently available spaceborne sensors. The main difficulty experienced so far results from the strong influence of other surface characteristics, mainly roughness, on the backscattering coefficient, w...
متن کاملResearch on the Spatial Variability of Soil Moisture Based on GIS
With the help of GPS and measuring instrument of soil moisture, soil moisture was measured and analyzed. As using Geo-statistics to the study of spatial variability of soil moisture and use ArcGIS 9.0, get the spatial distribution map of soil water property with Kriging interpolation. The research result showed that all soil spatial characters are normal distribution and the spatial distributio...
متن کاملScaled spatial variability of soil moisture fields
[1] This study identifies soil moisture spatial variability patterns using measurements across different extents (i.e., field, watershed, and basin) and depths (i.e., from surface to root zone profile) from 18 different soil moisture field experiments. The spatial variability patterns are well represented by negative exponential functions between the mean and the coefficient of variation of soi...
متن کاملA new perspective on the spatio-temporal variability of soil moisture: temporal dynamics versus time-invariant contributions
Knowledge about the spatio-temporal variability of soil moisture is essential to understand and predict processes in climate science and hydrology. A significant body of literature exists on the characterization of the spatial variability and the rank stability (also called temporal stability) of absolute soil moisture. Yet previous studies were generally based on short-term measurement campaig...
