Table 4 The computed means of each goodness-of-fit statistics metric, including bias, RMSE, ubRMSE, and R in the evaluation against CEOP 5 cm soil moisture, and CTP-SMTMN top-layer (0–5 cm) soil moisture measurements for both open loop (OL) and multivariate data assimilation (MVDA) estimates between 2003 and 2019. n denotes the total number of stations.
