abstract = {Since the introduction of the cosmic-ray neutron method for
soil moisture estimation, numerous studies have been
conducted to test and advance the accuracy of the method.
Almost 200 stationary neutron detector systems have been
installed worldwide, and roving systems have also started to
gain ground. The intensity of low-energy neutrons produced
by cosmic rays, measured above the ground surface, is
sensitive to soil moisture in the upper decimeters of the
ground within a radius of hectometers. The method has been
proven suitable for estimating soil moisture for a wide
range of land covers and soil types and has been used for
hydrological modeling, data assimilation, and calibration
and validation of satellite products. The method is
challenged by the effect on neutron intensity of other
hydrogen pools such as vegetation, canopy interception, and
snow. Identifying the signal of the different pools can be
used to improve the cosmic-ray neutron soil moisture method
as well as extend the application to, e.g., biomass and
canopy interception surveying. More fundamental research is
required for advancement of the method to include more
energy ranges and consider multiple height levels.},
