Root-zone Water Availability

Root-Zone Water Availability is a hydrological metric that quantifies the volumetric proportion of soil water within the root zone that is accessible to plants, defined as the difference between current soil water content and the water content at wilting point, relative to the total available water capacity between field capacity and wilting point.
