Accurate and spatiotemporal seamless soil moisture (SM) products are important for hydrological drought monitoring and agricultural water management. Currently, physically-based process models with data assimilation are widely used for global seamless SM generation, such as soil moisture active passive level 4 (SMAP L4), the land component of the fifth generation of European Reanalysis (ERA5-land) and Global Land Data Assimilation System Noah (GLDAS-Noah).
