      abstract     = {The current long-lasting dry weather conditions in central
                      Europe and projected regional climatechange, with
                      accompanying impacts such as droughts, pose an increasing
                      problem for agriculture.Within the framework of the projects
                      ADAPTER (ADAPT TERrestrial systems) and DG-RR
                      (DigitalGeosystem Rhinland Region), we are aiming to support
                      the agricultural sector with novel soil conditionand weather
                      forecasting products that provide the basis for an increased
                      resilience to short-termchanging weather patterns and
                      extremes as well as to long-term, regional climate
                      change.These products are realized using a prototypical
                      monitoring and real-time forecasting system. In adata
                      synthesis approach, a measurement network of soil moisture
                      sensors is established, in a first stepin collaboration with
                      the forecast users. The measurement network consists of
                      novel Cosmic Ray NeutronSensor (Styx Neutronica), SoilNet
                      sensors (soil moisture, temperature and matrix potential
                      measuredin three depths) and a combi-sensor to measure
                      common meteorological parameters (ATMOS-41, METER
                      Environment) such as air temperature, humidity, pressure,
                      solar irradiance, wind speedand precipitation. In real time,
                      the measured data are transmitted and stored to a cloud
                      server viathe cellular solution NBIoT (Narrow Band Internet
                      of Things). After data post-processing the datais
                      assimilated into the fully coupled, multi-physics TSMP
                      (Terrestrial Systems Modelling Platform,www.terrsysmp.org)
                      numerical model system at Forschungszentrum Jülich. One of
                      the implementationsuses the ParFlow hydrological model
                      (www.parflow.org) in combination with the Common LandModel
                      to predict hourly, high-resolution (near plot-level)
                      information on soil moisture or other soiland meteorological
                      parameters for the next 10 days.Both the measured data and
                      the forecasting products are made gradually available in
                      near real-timeon the digital product platform at
                      www.adapter-projekt.de. This allows the users to access
                      relevantinformation that can be used as basis for
                      decision-making in the management of current
                      farmingactivities (irrigation and fertilization
                      requirements, sowing and harvesting times, trafficability
                      andworkability). Furthermore, the data and findings may also
                      contribute to improve the prediction of soilhydrology or to
                      validate hydrogeophysical measurements.},
