摘　　要：The influence of shallow groundwater on the diurnal heat transport of the soil profile was analyzed using a soil sensor automatic monitoring system that continu- ously measures temperature and water content of soil profiles to simulate heat transport based on the Philip and de Vries （PDV） model. Three experiments were conducted to measure soil properties at depths of 5 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm, and 30 cm when groundwater tables reached l0 cm, 30 cm, and 60 cm （Experiments I, II, and III）. Results show that both the soil temperature near shallow groundwater and the soil water content were effectively simulated by the PDV model. The root mean square errors of the temperature at depths of 5 cm, 10 cm, and 20 cm were 1.018℃, 0.909℃, and 0.255℃, respectively. The total heat flux generated the convergent and divergent planes in space-time fields with valley values of-161.5 W-m 2 at 7：30 and -234.6 W.m2 at 11：10 in Experiments II and III, respectively. The diurnal heat transport of the saturated soil occurred in five stages, while that of saturated-unsaturated and unsaturated soil profiles occurred in four stages because high moisture content led to high thermal conductivity, which hastened the heat transport.The influence of shallow groundwater on the diurnal heat transport of the soil profile was analyzed using a soil sensor automatic monitoring system that continu- ously measures temperature and water content of soil profiles to simulate heat transport based on the Philip and de Vries （PDV） model.
