Soil moisture in root zone controls the process of water absorption and transpiration of vegetation, which is an important variable in land-atmosphere interaction. In order to obtain the spatial and temporal distribution of soil moisture in root zone, we select the Laohahe River Basin located in the semiarid area as the research area, and examine the patterns of soil moisture in root zones by using the physical soil moisture analytical relationship(SMAR)model and the remote sensing soil moisture products. The results show that the equation for estimating the parameters of SMAR model (p<0.05, two-tailed t-test)can be established by using soil physical properties, the normalized vegetation index and the actual evapotranspiration as independent variables for multivariate linear regression analysis. The combination of remote sensing soil moisture products and SMAR model has a good performance for the estimation of soil moisture in the root zones of the region. Compared the estimation results based on the remotely sensed SM products with the ones based on the field measurements, the correlation coefficients mainly distributed in range of 0.5~0.9, with the average value of 0.692 (p<0.05, two-tailed t-test). The mean absolute error, the mean relative error, the mean square root error, and the standard deviation are generally less than 0.1. In general, the combination of SMAR model and remote sensing data products can well estimate the spatial distribution of soil moisture in root zones at the regional scale. This study can provide the support for the estimation of soil moisture in the root zones at larger scale, and can improve agricultural planning, drought monitoring and other hydrological simulation in the arid and semi-arid areas.
