Principles responsible for the inconsistent controlling factors of surface soil water content spatial variation across regions and scales

摘要

Abstract Purpose Inconsistent controlling factors of soil water content (SWC) spatial variation across regions and spatial scales have been acknowledged in previous studies. However, universal principles explaining these inconsistencies are still needed to be explored. The main aim of this study was to conclude the universal principles across regions and scales.Materials and methods In this study, based on the surface (
