  • Title: Recent Developments in Wireless Soil Moisture Sensing to Support Scientific Research and Agricultural Management.
    Author: Bogena HR, Weuthen A, Huisman JA.
    Journal: Sensors (Basel); 2022 Dec 13; 22(24):. PubMed ID: 36560160.
    Abstract:
    In recent years, wireless sensor network (WSN) technology has emerged as an important technique for wireless sensing of soil moisture from the field to the catchment scale. This review paper presents the current status of wireless sensor network (WSN) technology for distributed, near real-time sensing of soil moisture to investigate seasonal and event dynamics of soil moisture patterns. It is also discussed how WSN measurements of soil measurements contribute to the validation and downscaling of satellite data and non-invasive geophysical instruments as well as the validation of distributed hydrological models. Finally, future perspectives for WSN measurements of soil moisture are highlighted, which includes the improved integration of real-time WSN measurements with other information sources using the latest wireless communication techniques and cyberinfrastructures.
