nldas.SOILM: NLDAS Soil Moisture Data

Description Usage Format Details Source

Description

Soil moisture data were downloaded from NLDAS NOAH and read into R. Only data from the county centroid were used. However this may not be representative of the soil moisture in each county, and a county average may perform better (empirically there was no advantage to using a county average over a county centroid in Keyel et al. 2019)
