A New Method to Retrieve Soil Roughness Parameter
Soil roughness is a very important parameter affecting radar backscattering coefficient. This paper wants to introduce a new method to retrieve the combined roughness parameter 2 / Zs s l = on the condition of rough surface. To achieve this goal, two experiments are conducted: (1) Advanced Integral Equation Model (AIEM) is used to simulate backscattering coefficients; and (2) a new algorithm to...
متن کاملOn the Soil Roughness Parameterization Problem in Soil Moisture Retrieval of Bare Surfaces from Synthetic Aperture Radar
Synthetic Aperture Radar has shown its large potential for retrieving soil moisture maps at regional scales. However, since the backscattered signal is determined by several surface characteristics, the retrieval of soil moisture is an ill-posed problem when using single configuration imagery. Unless accurate surface roughness parameter values are available, retrieving soil moisture from radar ...

متن کاملSoil Organic Carbon Assessment by Field and Airborne Spectrometry in Bare Croplands: Accounting for Soil Surface Roughness
Visible, Near and Short Wave Infrared (VNSWIR) diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (350 nm to 2500 nm) has been proven to be an efficient tool to determine the Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) content. SOC assessment (SOCa) is usually done by using calibration samples and multivariate models. However one of the major constraints of this technique, when used in field conditions is the spatial variation in...
متن کاملRegionalized soil roughness indices
The soil roughness at the field level is an easy visually perceptible notion, but difficult to describe numerically. The objective of this paper is to propose a method to establish quantitative and descriptive soil roughness indices. A measurement system was developed using a laptop-computer and a laser cell. The elevation data are measured on the ground along a square array. They are treated w...
