Climate change has a significant effect on the perpetual state of soil moisture conditions. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of climatic parameters on status of root zone soil moisture. The research study has investigated the implications of various environmental variables such as earth skin temperature [°C], wind speed [m/s], relative humidity [%], maximum and minimum temperature [°C], and precipitation [mm] on root zone soil moisture of Polish cities namely Kraków and Warsaw. Kraków is characterized by a temperate climate zone, located in the central Europe. Warsaw is the capital of Poland, located in the central part of the country. It is essential to ascertain the stationarity nature of variables before the application of the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model of Jordan and Phillips (2018). The findings of unit root tests by Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) and Phillips Perron (PP) illustrate the stationary status of variables at both levels 1 (0) and the first difference 1 (1). The results revealed improvement in the rhizosphere's moisture levels as affected by relative humidity, precipitation, and minimal temperature at two meters, both in short− and long−term periods. The earth's skin temperature, wind speed, and maximum temperature at two meters has a negative influence on soil moisture content. The results have depicted that a 10% increase in precipitation, minimum temperature, and relative humidity have enhanced the soil moisture content by 1.294%, 1.019%, and 0.193%, respectively, at Krakow, and 0.993%, 0.794%, 0.873% improvement at Warsaw in the long run. The long−term influence of maximum temperature, wind speed, and earth skin temperature has negatively affected soil moisture by –0.744%, –0.468%, –0.3875% in Kraków, and –1.472%, –0.761%, –1.614%, in Warsaw. This study has emphasized the significant effect of climate change on agriculture, forestry, and ecosystems, which has accentuated the requirement for adopting water conservation and smart agriculture practices. It is feasible to mitigate the detrimental effects of wind gusts and high temperatures by cultivating drought invulnerable plant varieties and practicing soil conservation methods. The adoption of these measures is pivotal in diminishing the influence of climate change on soil moisture and contributes significantly to sustainable agriculture practices, forestry, and ecosystems.
