Passive microwave soil moisture downscaling using evaporative fraction
This paper develops two different approaches for downscaling (disaggregation) passive microwave derived soil moisture from coarse resolution L-band observations. Ground and airborne data collected over Walnut Gulch experimental watershed during the Monsoon ’90 experiment were used to test these approaches. These data consisted of eight micrometeorological stations (METFLUX) and six flights of t...
متن کاملSpace-based passive microwave soil moisture retrievals and the correction for a dynamic open water fraction
The large observation footprint of low-frequency satellite microwave emissions complicates the interpretation of near-surface soil moisture retrievals. While the effect of sub-footprint lateral heterogeneity is relatively limited under unsaturated conditions, open water bodies (if not accounted for) cause a strong positive bias in the satellite-derived soil moisture retrieval. This bias is gene...
متن کاملPassive microwave soil moisture evaluations by ground based measurements in Korea
Passive microwave sensors have many advantages including the ability to directly measured soil moisture at large spatial scales regardless of weather conditions or time of day. However, microwave-sensed soil moisture’s inevitable limitation is that it cannot describe hydrology at the watershed because its retrieved soil moisture scale is too large. Thus, microwave-sensed soil moisture requires ...
متن کاملScaling Properties of L-band Passive Microwave Soil Moisture: From SMOS to Paddock Scale
Remote sensing of soil moisture is a powerful and inexpensive way to map surface soil moisture for a range of applications, including weather prediction, water resources management and irrigation practices. Passive microwave sensors operating at L-band wavelength have shown the most potential for this task. However, this technology faces some major challenges, mostly related to correct interpre...
متن کاملSoil moisture inversion from aircraft passive microwave observations during SMEX04 using a single-frequency algorithm
Soil moisture plays a key role in global water cycles. In the study, soil moisture retrievals from airborne microwave radiometer observations using a single-frequency algorithm were presented. The algorithm is based on a simplified radiative transfer (tauomega) model and the influence of both the roughness and vegetation is combined into a single parameter in the algorithm. The microwave polari...
