Evaluation of AMSR-E-Derived Soil Moisture Retrievals Using Ground-Based and PSR Airborne Data during SMEX02
A Land Surface Microwave Emission Model (LSMEM) is used to derive soil moisture estimates over Iowa during the Soil Moisture Experiment 2002 (SMEX02) field campaign, using brightness temperature data from the Advanced Microwave Sounding Radiometer (AMSR)-E satellite. Spatial distributions of the near-surface soil moisture are produced using the LSMEM, with data from the North American Land Data...
متن کاملDeriving soil moisture with the combined L-band radar and radiometer measurements Citation
In this study, we develop a combined active/passive technique to estimate surface soil moisture with the focus on the short vegetated surfaces. We first simulated a database for both active and passive signals under SMAP’s sensor configurations using the radiative transfer model with a wide range of conditions for surface soil moisture, roughness and vegetation properties that we considered as ...
متن کاملA Multi-Sensor Approach for High Resolution Airborne Soil Moisture Mapping
Airborne remote sensing provides a viable option for high resolution mapping of nearsurface soil moisture that allows larger areas to be covered in greater spatial and temporal detail than has hereto been possible from traditional ground based techniques. However, the current retrieval algorithms require information on near-surface soil temperature and vegetation water content in order to estim...
متن کاملValidation of a τ-ω model with Soil Moisture Active Passive Experiment (SMAPEx) data sets in Australia
There is a strong demand for soil moisture information in establishing efficient irrigation scheduling, climate change prediction, and sustainable land and water management. However, such data are not readily available with an appropriate accuracy or spatial and temporal resolution. Addressing the need for soil moisture at high resolution globally, the European Space Agency (ESA) has developed ...
متن کاملThe Soil Moisture Active Passive Experiments (SMAPEx): Towards Soil Moisture Retrieval from the SMAP Mission
21 NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission will carry the first combined spaceborne L-22 band radiometer and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system with the objective of mapping near-23 surface soil moisture and freeze/thaw state globally every 2-3 days. SMAP will provide three soil 24 moisture products; (i) high-resolution from radar (~3km), (ii) low-resolution from radiometer 25 (~3...
