Short summary
Groundwater level dynamics under freeze-thaw conditions remain unclear. We use interpretable deep learning to simulate water table changes and identify seasonal drivers in seasonally frozen regions. During freeze-thaw, changes in soil water potential cause two-way exchange between soil water and groundwater, while rainfall, runoff, and irrigation dominate in other periods. These insights inform groundwater modeling and management in cold regions.
