TL;DR: In this article, a review of the existing PTFs and new generation of PTF developed in the different disciplines of Earth system science is presented, emphasizing that PTF development has to go hand in hand with suitable extrapolation and upscaling techniques such that the PTF models correctly represent the spatial heterogeneity of soils.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The requirements for future geomorphology monitoring are focused on the implementation and linking of in-situ, close-range, air- and spaceborne RS technologies, geomorphic traits, and data science approaches as crucial components for a better understanding of the geomorphic impacts on complex ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Footprint characteristics revised for field‐scale soil moisture monitoring with cosmic‐ray neutrons
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a refined source and energy spectrum for cosmic-ray neutrons and simulated their response to a variety of environmental conditions to derive the characteristics of the probe's footprint.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This work derives a list of specific recommendations of what and how to measure at a monitoring site and calls for an integration of sites into co-located site networks across individual monitoring initiatives, and centered on ecosystems.
