Description

This dataset contains a pan-European dataset with time series for soil water content. For a total of 5758 stations (status January 2026) daily soil water content values are produced for the period for which all input data is available. Input data is from the European Climate Assessment & Dataset (ECA&D, https://www.ecad.eu) and are daily precipitation totals, daily averaged temperature, and global radiation sums. These data are input to the SoilClim model (Hlavinka et al. 2011, doi:10.1016/j.agwat.2011.03.011) which provides soil water contents values for the upper 10 cm, the root zone and the deeper layer of the soil. In this dataset, values for the surface and root zone are provided. Soil characteristics are taken from the widely used SoilGrids system (Hengl et al. 2017, doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0169748).
