Remotely Sensed Soil Moisture over Australia from AMSR-E
نویسندگان
چکیده
Soil moisture can significantly influence atmospheric evolution. However the soil moisture state predicted by land surface models, and subsequently used as the boundary condition in atmospheric models, is often unrealistic. New remote sensing technologies are able to observe surface soil moisture at the scales and coverage required by numerical weather prediction (NWP), and there is potential to improve modelled soil moisture, and ultimately atmospheric forecasts, through assimilation of this remotely sensed data into NWP models.

Passive 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 ...

[1] Coupled with information from the North American Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS), standard soil datasets and vegetation and land surface parameters, a land surface microwave emission model (LSMEM) is employed using AMSR-E brightness temperatures at X-band (10.7 GHz) to determine soil moisture over Iowa for June and July 2002. Comparisons of calculated soil moisture with in situ valida...

Soil moisture is one of the most important climatic parameters playing an important role in the global climate system. Soil moisture can be derived from in-situ measurements as well as remotely sensed observations. However, these measurements typically lack the spatial and/or temporal resolutions necessary for modeling and applications. Land surface models (LSM) can be used to simulate the land...

Soil moisture is one of the most important key physical parameters in hydrological and environmental processes. During the past decade, remote sensing measurements have been widely used to provide mean surface soil moisture on a large spatial scale because conventional ground based measurements are not always available and require more time and cost. However, very few studies have been conducte...
