英文摘要	Quick and accurate estimates of spatial mean volumetric soil water content (theta) are essential for validating remotely-sensed soil water content and water budget analyses. The objective of this study was to test and validate a methodology that utilizes measured theta from the Most Time Stable Locations (MTSLs) to estimate mean theta in an adjacent or distant area while negating the impact of variability in soil, vegetation and topographic properties. Soil water content measured by a neutron probe at depths of 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 m in Laoyemanqu watershed on the Chinese Loess Plateau was used to test our methodology. This method predicts mean theta of one area with measured theta at the MTSL from another area. Estimation errors depend on size of the study areas, number of measurement times in the target area and soil depth. A more accurate estimation of mean theta was found when using larger areas and deeper soils. Our method was also validated by predicting mean theta of a larger watershed (Liudaogou watershed) using the theta measurement at the MTSL at Laoyemanqu watershed. The proposed method has great potential for soil water upscaling with sodo-economic, environmental and geo-political values. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
