Input-Output Data Sets Used in the Evaluation of the Two-Layer Soil Moisture and Flux Model

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Catalog Last Checked: April 21, 2026 at 08:03 PM | Dataset Last Updated: July 07, 2022
The Excel file contains the model input-out data sets that where used to evaluate the two-layer soil moisture and flux dynamics model. The model is original and was developed by Dr. Hantush by integrating the well-known Richards equation over the root layer and the lower vadose zone. The input-output data are used for: 1) the numerical scheme verification by comparison against HYDRUS model as a benchmark; 2) model validation by comparison against real site data; and 3) for the estimation of model predictive uncertainty and sources of modeling errors. This dataset is associated with the following publication: He, J., M.M. Hantush, L. Kalin, and S. Isik. Two-Layer numerical model of soil moisture dynamics: Model assessment and Bayesian uncertainty estimation. JOURNAL OF HYDROLOGY. Elsevier Science Ltd, New York, NY, USA, 613 part A: 128327, (2022).
