Translating aboveground cosmic-ray neutron intensity to high-frequency soil moisture profiles at sub-kilometer scale
Above-ground cosmic-ray neutron measurements provide an opportunity to infer soil moisture at the subkilometer scale. Initial efforts to assimilate those measurements have shown promise. This study expands such analysis by investigating (1) how the information from aboveground cosmic-ray neutrons can constrain the soil moisture at distinct depths simulated by a land surface model, and (2) how c...

متن کاملTime and other Variations in the Intensity of Cosmic Ray Neutrons
We have measured the barometer coefficient of cosmic ray neutron production at sea level and find the value —9,25% ± 0,20/cmHg. We have shown that there is no diurnal variation of neutron production of amplitude greater than about 0,4 %. The effects of the large solar flare of November 19th, 1949 on cosmic ray neutrons were much greater than on ionising cosmic rays at sea level; the maximum fac...
متن کاملPredicting Neutron Production from Cosmic-ray Muons
Fast neutrons from cosmic-ray muons are an important background to underground low energy experiments. The estimate of such background is often hampered by the difficulty of measuring and calculating neutron production with sufficient accuracy. Indeed substantial disagreement exists between the different analytical calculations performed so far, while data reported by different experiments is n...
متن کاملRegional cosmic ray induced ionization and geomagnetic field changes
Cosmic ray induced ionization (CRII) is an important factor of outer space influences on atmospheric properties. Variations of CRII are caused by two different processes – solar activity variations, which modulate the cosmic ray flux in interplanetary space, and changes of the geomagnetic field, which affects the cosmic ray access to Earth. Migration of the geomagnetic dipole axis may greatly a...
