The Lisflood rainfall‐runoff model was forced by the E‐OBS (http://www.ecad.eu/download/ensembles/ensembles.php) gridded meteorological dataset in order to produce 5‐km resolution maps of root zone soil moisture for the period 1951–2013, which were used to evaluate the presence of significant trends in soil water deficit over Europe. The results of the trend analysis highlighted a clear subdivision of the European domain into two sub‐regions: a southwest portion with mostly positive trends (drying of the soil) and a northeast part with decreasing soil water deficit. Overall, about 19% of the domain was affected by a significant linear trend according to the Mann‐Kendall test and the false discovery rate (FDR) procedure (p = 0.05), with about 11.6% having a negative (wetting) and 7.6% a positive (drying) slope. A spatial cluster analysis identified 11 major areas (with extension > 10 000 km2) affected by significant trends, including the Ebro and Garonne basins (for positive slopes) and the Dniester watershed (for negative trends). A final analysis at national and sub‐national levels highlights that most of the observed trends are also significant when aggregated at a regional (NUTS‐1) spatial scale, detecting the administrative areas where water management planes are most likely affected. As drying and wetting processes are occurring mainly in the already driest and wettest sub‐areas of the modelling domain, respectively, the obtained results suggest a further polarization of the water deficit in Europe.
