Short summary
Scientists use a physics-based equation to simulate water dynamics that influence hydrological and ecological phenomena. We present hybrid physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) to leverage the growing availability of soil moisture data and advances in machine learning. We showed that PINNs perform comparably to traditional methods and enable the estimation of rainfall rates from soil moisture. However, PINNs are challenging to train and significantly slower than traditional methods.
