Short summary
This study introduces a new interpretable deep learning method that accurately predicts multi-depth soil moisture simultaneously without physical assumptions. The model provides insights into soil properties, while delivering precise predictions across diverse scenarios. Tested under various conditions, it outperforms traditional approaches, particularly when enhanced with basic physics. This tool can help improve water management by offering reliable and efficient soil moisture forecasts.
