n situ soil moisture monitoring networks are critical to the development of soil moisture remote sensing missions as well as agricultural and environmental management, weather forecasting, and many other endeavors. These in situ networks utilize a variety of sensors and installation practices, which confounds the development of a unified reference...
Groundwater–surface-water (GW-SW) interactions in streams are difficult to quantify because of heterogeneity in hydraulic and reactive processes across a range of spatial and temporal scales. The challenge of quantifying these interactions has led to the development of several techniques, from centimeter-scale probes to whole-system tracers, including chemical, thermal, and electrical...
Raman spectra distributed temperature sensing (DTS) by fiber-optic cables has
recently shown considerable promise for the measuring and monitoring of surface and
near-surface hydrologic processes such as groundwater–surface water interaction,
borehole circulation, snow hydrology, soil moisture studies, and land surface energy
exchanges. DTS systems uniquely provide the opportunity to monitor...
