Soil moisture is essential for the development of plants, it regulates soil structure, soil temperature, salinity and the presence of toxic substances and it contributes to prevent soil erosion. As it determines conditions for land use, soil moisture content is an important element of the land system.
Soil moisture is measured in standardised anomalies, i.e. in standard deviations from the long-term (1995-2019) normal conditions. Negative values indicate deficit in soil moisture content whereas positive values indicate more than average soil moisture content.
Soil moisture time series is acquired through the Copernicus Emergency Service maintained by the Joint Research Center of the European Commission.
