A soil moisture monitoring network to characterize karstic recharge and evapotranspiration at five representative sites across the globe

Abstract: Abstract. Karst systems are characterized by a high subsurface heterogeneity, and their complex recharge processes are difficult to characterize. Experimental methods to study karst systems mostly focus on analysing the entire aquifer. Despite their important role in recharge processes, the soil and epikarst receive limited attention, and the few available studies were performed at sites of similar latitudes. In this paper, we describe a new monitoring network that allows for the improvement of the understandi… Show more

“…Researchers have used in-situ sensing sites or networks to measure, record, and transmit soil moisture data from many locations worldwide [1]. For example, traditional sensing technologies that measure soil moisture include the neutron probe [5], time-domain reflectometry (TDR) [6] [7], frequency-domain reflectometry (FDR) [8], capacitance [2] [9] [10], and heat dissipation [11]. However, researchers have used other emerging in-situ and proximal sensing techniques, such as cosmic-ray neutrons [1] [12], global positioning system (GPS)…”

“…Climate change will affect hydrological dynamics and water availability in karstic regions by an unknown extent. New approaches to understanding the impact of climate change on karstic regions are therefore of great importance.Recent achievements in karst research include the creation of a karst spring discharge database to promote data availability for karstic regions (Olarinoye et al, 2020), relating soil moisture networks to karst groundwater storage and flow (Berthelin et al, 2020), using tracer experiments to detect fast and slow pathways and the connectivity of conduit systems (…”
