Popis: Spatiotemporal patterns in soil moisture and vegetation water content across mainland Australia were investigated from 1998 through 2005, using TRMM/TMI passive microwave observations. The Empirical Orthogonal Function technique was used to extract dominant spatial and temporal patterns in retrieved estimates of moisture content for the top 1-cm of soil (θ) and vegetation moisture content (via optical depth τ). The dominant temporal θ and τ patterns were strongly correlated to the El Niño Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) in spring (τ
