1 Csmic-ray sil water mnitring: the develpment, status & ptential f the COSMOS- India netwrk Rss Mrrisn, J. G. Evans, S. S. Angadi, L. Ball, T. Chakrabrty, H. Cper, M. Fry, G. Geet, M. Gswami, N. Ganeshi, O. Hitt, S. Jain, M. Krishnan, R. Krishnan, A. Kumar, M. Mujumdar, M. Nema, G. Rees, M. Sekhar, O. Swain, R. Thayyen, S. Tripathi, D. Upadhyaya & A. Jenkins

2 COSMOS-India: utline Backgrund & ratinale Basics f measurement principle COSMOS-India netwrk & sites Selected results Future wrk

3 COSMOS-India: bjectives Cllabrative develpment f sil misture (SM) netwrk in India using csmic ray (COSMOS) sensrs Deliver high tempral frequency SM bservatins at the intermediate spatial scale in near real-time Develpment f natinal COSMOS-India data system & near real time data prtal Integrate with Earth Observatin datasets fr validated SM maps f India Empwer many ther applicatins

4 Acknwledgment: ther COSMOS netwrks csms.hwr.arizna.edu csms.ceh.ac.uk

5 Why measure sil misture (SM)? Cntrls exchanges f energy & mass between land surface & atmsphere Hydrlgy: cntrls evaptranspiratin, partitining between runff & infiltratin, grundwater recharge Meterlgy: partitining slar energy int sensible, latent & sil heat fluxes, surface-bundary layer interactins Plant grwth & sil bigechemistry

6 Applicatins f sil misture data

7 SM bservatin techniques Challenge: SM bservatins at spatial & tempral reslutin relevant t applicatins (e.g. gridded mdels, field scale) asuring sil misture cntent Pint scale: high tempral reslutin & lw cst Issues - spatial hetergeneity & sensr placement (e.g. tilled fields) Scale gap between hydrlgical mdels & satellite prducts Satellite remte sensing: near-surface sil misture ver large areas Issues - discntinuus, carse, limited penetratin depth, sensitive t surface cnditins, high cst COSMOS: spatially averaged, intermediate scale, cntinuus Mre relevant t mdels, eddy cvariance, satellite data prducts

8 COsmic-ray Sil Misture Observing System Explits inverse relatinship between fast neutrn intensity & near-surface water cntent (specifically hydrgen) Near-surface neutrn intensity (cunt) is a functin f prductin by csmic rays & their mderatin (thermalisatin) by surrunding H atms Gas (He 3 r BF 3 ) discharge tube (CRS) detects reductin (increase) in fast neutrns as SM (H) increases (decreases) CRS calibrated in situ t cnvert frm neutrn intensity t vlumetric sil water cntent (m 3 m -3 ) Zreda et al., COSMOS: the Csmic-ray Sil Misture Observing System (2012) Hydrlgy & Earth System Science. 16:
