SOIL-WATERGRIDS v1, mapping dynamic changes in soil moisture and depth of water table from 1970 to 2014, dataset and modelling

SOIL-WATERGRIDS is a comprehensive data product of the monthly estimates of volumetric soil water content at three depths within the root zone and the depth of the water table globally gridded at a resolution of 0.25x025 degree per grid cell from 1970 to 2014. The SOIL-WATERGRIDS data product also provides the full-scale global model (BRTSim, https://sites.google.com/site/thebrtsimproject/home) that allows third party users to assess the entire volumetric soil water content and water table dynamics from land surface to 50 m depth. This package includes a Technical Documentation with the details about the use of the data product.SOIL-WATERGRIDS是一款综合性数据产品，涵盖1970年至2014年全球范围内逐月估算的根区内三层深度体积土壤含水量与地下水位数据，所有数据以0.25×0.25度的分辨率进行网格化，单个网格单元的分辨率为0.25×0.25度。该数据产品还配套提供全尺度全球模型（BRTSim，https://sites.google.com/site/thebrtsimproject/home），可供第三方用户评估从地表至50米深度的完整体积土壤含水量与地下水位动态变化。本数据包附带一份详细阐述该数据产品使用方法的技术文档。
