However, the dominant factors determining the seasonal origins of MSW across different spatiotemporal scales remain poorly understood. To identify these origins under different freeze–thaw stages and topographic conditions, field samples were collected from the south, north, and valley regions of the northeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from May to September 2022. We analyzed the dominant factors influencing the seasonal origins of MSW across topographies using a random forest regression model and explored causal relationships among factors through a structural equation model. Our results reveal dynamic changes in the seasonal origins of MSW and highlight key influencing factors under varying dry and wet conditions due to topographic heterogeneity. Specifically, (1) uneven seasonal precipitation, combined with substantial summer rainfall, results in summer precipitation accounting for 81 % of MSW replenishment. As melting progresses, the contribution from winter precipitation increases from 11 % in June to 23 % in September, indicating greater winter input at the watershed outlet in later seasons; (2) shallow MSW is replenished by both recent and antecedent summer precipitation, while deep MSW is primarily sustained by antecedent summer precipitation, emphasizing the significant role of summer precipitation in shallow MSW; and (3) under low soil water content (south slope), dynamic climate factors such as relative humidity and precipitation significantly influence precipitation infiltration, making them critical for determining the seasonal origins of MSW. In contrast, under high soil water content conditions (north slope and valley), static topographic heterogeneities influence water pathways, thus playing a dominant role in the seasonal sources of MSW.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12511,"journal":{"name":"Geoderma","volume":"454 ","pages":"Article 117190"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143055319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies have relied on surface soil moisture (SSM) values, which are more easily measured, to estimate RZSM using the Soil Moisture Analytical Relationship (SMAR) model or regression method. However, the performance of these two types of methods in areas with complex topography still needs more exploration. Here, we assess the accuracy of these two types of methods in a forested mountainous catchment, using daily SSM measurements from 32 monitoring sites. The results show that both methods are capable of accurately estimating RZSM with a high NSE (&gt;0.950) during the validation period. Additionally, they exhibit excellent model transferability at ungauged sites. Spatially, both methods perform better in drier areas than in wetter areas. Temporally, both methods are better in the wet–cold season than in the dry–warm season. Overall, both methods demonstrate comparable performance in the catchment, with NSE values of 0.986 and 0.951 during the validation period, respectively. The regression method is more suited to complex hydropedological environments characterized by long-term soil moisture monitoring and nonlinear hydropedological behaviors. Conversely, the SMAR model is better suited for flat areas and less spatial variability in microtopography. Moreover, the estimation of RZSM by both methods is influenced not only by soil moisture conditions but also by local factors including terrain topography, soil depth, and the degree of subsurface hydrological connectivity. This study adds to our understanding of RZSM estimation from SSM in complex terrain and will act as a reference for selecting appropriate methods of RZSM estimation.

Our findings revealed that while enchytraeids had minimal impact on X-ray imaged porosity, they played a key role in reshaping the soil’s internal structure, increasing pore connectivity and homogenizing pore size distribution. This was evident through a reduction in the number of smaller pores and a shift toward larger pore sizes. The overall pore structure became more uniform, with enchytraeids promoting a shift in the dominant pore sizes. These structural changes were particularly pronounced in loosely compacted soils, where enchytraeids contributed to greater network complexity, as well as in the soil with a higher clay content, which is more conducive to aggregation. This suggests that enchytraeids have a significant role in modifying soil physical properties, especially in conditions where the soil is loosely compacted.

Spectral data from field measurements, the DLR Earth Sensing Imaging Spectrometer (DESIS), and Sentinel-2 were integrated, marking the first application of this combination for soil organic carbon prediction. To address the challenges of arid environments, the study introduced specialized preprocessing techniques, including a novel vegetation index (UAEVI) for masking vegetation, principal component analysis for filling missing attributes, area normalization, and Savitzky-Golay smoothing to reduce noise and enhance spectral data. Soil organic carbon exhibited significant spectral correlations, with negative relationships observed in the wavelength ranges 401–416, 670–698, and 926–957 nm, and strong positive relationships in the ranges 519–560, 744–785, 937, and 1610 nm.

Measurement difficulties require approximate approaches to describe the relationship between unfrozen water content (<em>θ</em>) and soil temperature, known as soil freezing characteristic curve (SFCC).

This study developed an alternative approach to estimate <em>θ</em> using a pedotransfer function (PTF) implemented with extreme gradient boosting (XGB). The XGB-PTF model was trained using SFCC data available in the literature, and cooperative game theory was utilized to assess potential impacts on <em>θ</em> predictions.

Significant reductions in root mean square error and mean absolute error of 42% and 55%, respectively, demonstrated the superiority of the XGB-PTF.

A notable advantage of the proposed model is its capacity to provide a credible range containing the actual <em>θ</em> with a 95% confidence level. Coupling the XGB-PTF with game theory indicated that the primary factors influencing the SFCC were in order of porosity (<em>n</em>), initial saturation degree (<em>S</em><sub>r</sub>), and clay fraction (<em>F</em><sub>clay</sub>) for fine-grained soils, while for coarse-grained soils, the order is <em>F</em><sub>clay</sub>, <em>n</em>, and <em>S</em><sub>r</sub>.
