Abstract:Abstract. Soil moisture memory (SMM), which refers to how long a perturbation in Soil Moisture (SM) can last, is critical for understanding climatic, hydrologic, and ecosystem interactions. Most land surface models (LSMs) tend to overestimate surface soil moisture and its persistency, sustaining unexpectedly large soil surface evaporation. In general, LSMs show an overestimation of long-term SMM and an underestimation of short-term SMM. This study aims to 1) identify key soil hydrological/hydraulic processes t… Show more
