Modelling soil moisture at SMOS scale by use of a SVAT model over the Valencia Anchor Station

Modelling Smos Brightness Temperature by Use of Coupled Svat and Radiative Transfer Models over the Valencia Anchor Station

Soil moisture is a key parameter controlling the exchanges at the surface/atmosphere interface. This parameter, very important for the weather and climate modelling, is not well monitored at a global scale. Because of its high spatial variability, a large number of point measurements is necessary to estimate an accurate value over an area. The SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) mission was...

Comparing soil moisture retrievals from SMOS and ASCAT over France

The first products derived over France in 2010 from the L-band brightness temperatures (Tb) measured by the SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) satellite, launched in November 2009, were compared with the surface soil moisture (SSM) estimates produced by the C-band Advanced Scatterometer, ASCAT, launched in 2006 on board METOP-A. SMOS and ASCAT SSM products were compared with the simulation...

Smos Soil Moisture Values Evaluation over Sahelian Area

Soil moisture is one of the most important variable that in uences the soil-vegetation-atmosphere uxes. However, due to its high temporal and spatial variability, it is dif cult to provide accurate quantitative information on soil moisture at regional and global scales. Different approaches exist, but remote sensing is the more appropriated to measure soil moisture values and its variations. It...

SMOS level 2 Processor for Soil Moisture

the use of appropriate madm model for ranking the vendors of mci equipments using fuzzy approach

abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
