The effect of the top soil layer on moisture and evaporation dynamics
Li, Zhen; Vanderborght, Jan; Smits, Kathleen M. (Soil Science Society of America; Geological Society of America; Wiley Open Access, 2020-06-23)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Understanding the effect of the top soil layer on surface evaporation and water distribution is critical to modeling hydrological systems. However, the dependency ... -
Evaluation of Model Concepts to Describe Water Transport in Shallow Subsurface Soil and Across the Soil–Air Interface
Li, Zhen; Vanderborght, Jan; Smits, Kathleen M. (Springer, 2018-09-17)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Soil water evaporation plays a critical role in mass and energy exchanges across the land– atmosphere interface. Although much is known about this process, there ... -
Heat and water transport in soils and across the soil-atmosphere interface: 1. Theory and different model concepts
Vanderborght, Jan; Fetzer, Thomas; Mosthaf, Klaus; Smits, Kathleen M.; Helmig, Rainer (Wiley; American Geophysical Union, 2017-02-03)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Evaporation is an important component of the soil water balance. It is composed of water flow and transport processes in a porous medium that are coupled with heat ... -
Heat and water transport in soils and across the soil-atmosphere interface: 2. Numerical analysis
Vanderborght, Jan; Fetzer, Thomas; Mosthaf, Klaus; Smits, Kathleen M.; Helmig, Rainer (Wiley; American Geophysical Union, 2017-02-03)**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: In an accompanying paper, we presented an overview of a wide variety of modeling concepts, varying in complexity, used to describe evaporation from soil.
