000016235 520__ $$aWe applied inverse modelling of zero-offset, air-raised ground-penetrating radar (GPR) data to measure soil surface water contents over a bare agricultural. field. The GPR system consisted of a vector network analyser combined with a low-frequency 0.2-2.0 GHz off-ground monostatic horn antenna, thereby setting up an ultra-wideband stepped-frequency continuous-wave radar. A fully automated platform was created by mounting the radar system on a truck for real-time data acquisition. An antenna calibration experiment was performed by lifting the whole setup to different heights above a perfect electrical conductor. This calibration procedure allowed the flittering out of the antenna effects and antenna-soil interactions from the raw radar data in the frequency domain. To avoid surface roughness effects, only the lower frequency range of 0.2-0.8 GHz was used for signal processing. Inversions of the radar data using the Green's functions were performed in the time domain, focusing on a time window containing the surface reflection. GPR measurements were conducted every 4 m along a transect of 100 m. In addition, five time-domain reflectometry measurements were randomly recorded within the footprint of the GPR antenna. A good agreement was observed between the GPR and time-domain reflectometry soil water content estimates, as compared to the previous study performed at the same test site using a higher frequency 0.8-1.6 GHz horn antenna. To monitor the dynamics of soil water content, a pair of time-domain reflectometry probes was installed at 8 cm depth near the footprint of the GPR antenna and both time-domain reflectometry and GPR measurements were carried out for a period of 20 days. A good agreement of the trend was observed between the time-domain reflectometry and GPR time-lapse data with respect to several precipitation events. The proposed method and truck-mounted setup appear to be promising for the real-time mapping and monitoring of surface soil moisture contents at the field scale.
