Global Observationally-Based Land-Atmosphere Coupling Metrics (GOLAM)

Therefore, this framework enables us to quantify the observational random error variance, thereby deriving mathematical formulations for the random-error-adjusted SMM, the adjusted Pearson correlation coefficient (R_Adjusted), and the adjusted terrestrial coupling index (I_Adjusted) from R_Adjusted. The third archive is "regime", which contains SM-EF regime identification. This archive provides global patterns of surface and sub-surface SM regimes and SM-EF indicators, such as wilting point, critical SM, saturated EF, and SM-EF slope, which are also quantified using segmented regression analysis.
