Soil Water Content (m3 m-3) from Australia, November 2007 - May 2009

The 2015–2016 El Niño event ranks as one of the most severe on record in terms of the magnitude and extent of sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies generated in the tropical Pacific Ocean. This data was used to investigate changes in soil moisture to better understand how it is impacted by climate anomalies during an El Niño event.This dataset contains soil water content hourly data processed to monthly from November 2007 to May 2009 in a single CSV file. Data was downloaded from Eddy Covariance Flux Tower at near-surface (0-10 cm) and was downloaded from the FluxNet soil moisture data network and is publicly available at https://fluxnet.org/data/download-data/. Data from this site located at latitude -13.08 deg N, longitude 131.12 deg E, is referenced as Australia (3) in Table 1 and Figure 4 of Solander et al.: The pantropical response of soil moisture to El Niño, Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci., 24, 2303–2322, https://doi.org/10.5194/hess-24-2303-2020, 2020. This dataset was originally published on the NGEE Tropics Archive and is being mirrored on ESS-DIVE for long-term archival2015–2016年厄尔尼诺事件是有记录以来强度与覆盖范围最为严峻的事件之一，其在热带太平洋引发的海表温度（sea surface temperature, SST）异常幅度位居全球前列。本数据集旨在探究土壤湿度的变化规律，以更深入地理解厄尔尼诺事件期间气候异常对土壤湿度的影响机制。该数据集包含2007年11月至2009年5月的土壤含水量逐小时观测数据（已处理为逐月尺度数据），存储于单个CSV文件中。数据来源于近地表（0–10厘米）的涡度协方差通量塔（Eddy Covariance Flux Tower）观测结果，同时取自通量网（FluxNet）土壤湿度数据网络，可通过https://fluxnet.org/data/download-data/公开获取。该观测站点的坐标为南纬13.08度、东经131.12度，在Solander等人发表的论文《The pantropical response of soil moisture to El Niño, Hydrol. Earth Syst. Sci., 24, 2303–2322, https://doi.org/10.5194/hess-24-2303-2020, 2020》的表1与图4中被标注为“澳大利亚（3）”。本数据集最初发布于NGEE热带档案馆（NGEE Tropics Archive），目前由ESS-DIVE镜像存档以实现长期留存。
