Currently, satellite-based soil moisture (SM) products and land surface model assimilation techniques are widely utilized. However, the presence of systematic errors in the observation process, algorithmic discrepancies between products, and variations in spatial and temporal scales result in diverse accuracy characteristics and applicability. This study evaluates three prominent SM products in China, namely, the Essential Climate Variable Soil Moisture (ECV), the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts' Fifth-Generation Land Surface Reanalysis Data (ERA5-Land), and the Global Land Surface Data Assimilation System (GLDAS). The evaluation was conducted using extended triple collocation (ETC) analysis and in situ validation methods at a monthly scale from 2000 to 2020. The ETC analysis results show that among the three products, GLDAS exhibits the highest correlation coefficient (CC) and the lowest standard deviation of error (ESD), indicating its superior performance in China. ECV and ERA5-Land follow, with slightly lower performance. In the in situ validation results, ERA5-Land displays the highest correlation, capturing the temporal trend of the ground SM well. Comparatively, in terms of overall accuracy, ECV performs the best, with a slightly smaller mean error (ME) and root mean square error (RMSE) than GLDAS, and ERA5-Land has the lowest accuracy. The discrepancy between the in situ validation results and ETC analysis can be attributed to the limited number of sites and their representativeness errors. Notably, ERA5-Land exhibits a highly consistent trend of interannual fluctuations between ESD and precipitation. Furthermore, a strong association is observed between the ME and RMSE of ECV and GLDAS and precipitation. These findings serve as valuable references for future SM studies in China. |
