Landslide Susceptibility Mapping Using Downscaled AMSR-E Soil Moisture: A Case Study From Cleveland Corral, California, US

open access: yesRemote Sensing of Environment, 2010
As soil moisture increases, slope stability decreases. Remotely sensed soil moisture data can provide routine updates of slope conditions necessary for landslide predictions.

Instrument characteristics and calibration of AMSR and AMSR-E

IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2003
The National Space Development Agency of Japan (NASDA) developed two spaceborne microwave radiometers: the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR) for NASDA's Advanced Earth Observing Satellite-II (ADEOS-II) and AMSR-E for NASA's Aqua satellite.

Rainfall over land from the AMSR-E

IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2004
Significant improvements in the retrieval of instantaneous rain rates over land have occurred through the continued evolution of the Goddard Profiling Algorithm (GPROF), which has been used in the TRMM mission and most recently, the Aqua Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-E). At present, GPROF V6 incorporates a probability of convective rain,

A soil moisture retrieval method for AMSR-E

IEEE International IEEE International IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2004. IGARSS '04. Proceedings. 2004, 2004
For vegetated surfaces, the commonly used soil moisture (SM) retrieval algorithm is a zero-order model which might not be the best one for AMSR-E, since multiple scattering effects could not be ignored at higher frequencies. But due to the simplicity of the zero-order model, it still has the advantage in SM retrieval, except emission relationship ...

Characteristics of AMSR-E slow rotation data

2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016
The Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for the Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) had been operated in special slow rotation mode to obtain continuous brightness temperatures for the inter-comparison with those of AMSR2 on the Global Change Observation Mission-Water (GCOM-W) for three years.

Estimation of Thin-Ice Thickness and Discrimination of Ice Type From AMSR-E Passive Microwave Data

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2019
Detection of thin-ice thickness with microwave radiometers, such as the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-Earth Observing System (AMSR-E), is very effective for the estimation of sea-ice production, which causes dense water driving ocean ...

Global SWE monitoring using AMSR-E data

IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2004
We demonstrate the "baseline" global snow water equivalent retrieval (SWE) algorithm using Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer EOS (AMSR-E). Daily, pentad and monthly records for March 2003 of AMSR-E SWE estimates are generated and gridded to the 25 km EASE-grid projection.

Simultaneous retrieval of global scale Vegetation Optical Depth, surface roughness, and soil moisture using X-band AMSR-E observations

, 2019
The radiative transfer scheme implemented for the retrieval of soil moisture from passive microwaves is a function of scattering, polarization mixing and attenuation effects of soil and vegetation.

Coastal flood monitoring based on AMSR-E data

2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016
The coastal floods induced by hurricane storm surge are frequent, costly, and deadly hazards. Accurately and quickly estimating the spatial extent of floods is highly important for relief and rescue operations. In this study, we present an approach to estimate the extent of large-scale coastal floods using AMSR-E data through mixed-pixel linear ...
