Zusammenfassung:This paper, the first part in a two-part series, is concerned with the interpretation of spatial and temporal variations in soil water content across a small rangeland catchment; two data sets are examined. The first data set is comprised of 25 728 soil water content measurements made at 34 sites over an 8 year period. The second data set consists of individual soil water content measurements made at 247 sites over a 6 day period. Geostatistical methods are used to describe variations in soil water content; general characterizations are made. In the companion paper the impact of antecedent soil water conditions is investigated for a suite of R-5 event simulations with a quasi-physically based rainfall-runoff model.
