Accurate estimation of soil water content (SWC) is essential for effective agriculture and water resources management. While various methods have been developed for in-situ SWC measurement, practical limitations and the need for comprehensive water sensor networks make their use complicated. To overcome these challenges, heuristic data-driven models may provide a suitable alternative to practical methods for SWC simulation under different cultivation conditions.

Reference evapotranspiration (ET) has a significant role in water resource planning and management as well as analysis of crop production and other agricultural tasks. Methods for estimating ET may require diurnal/monthly assessments to perceive the consequences of climatic changes on local regions. The spatial and temporal patterns of ET were analyzed in the current work using data from 340 weather stations in Iran.
