RETRIEVING SURFACE SOIL MOISTURE FROM MODIS AND AMSR-E DATA: A CASE STUDY IN TAIWAN [PDF]
Soil moisture is a key factor that controls the exchange of water between land surface evaporation and plant transpiration. Information on surface soil moisture variations in both time and spatial domains is important for numerous applications ...

Estimate of Hurricane Wind Speed from AMSR-E Low-Frequency Channel Brightness Temperature Data
Two new parameters (W6H and W6V) were defined that represent brightness temperature increments for different low-frequency channels due to ocean wind. We developed a new wind speed retrieval model inside hurricanes based on W6H and W6V using brightness ...

Downscaling of AMSR-E Soil Moisture over North China Using Random Forest Regression
Satellite retrieval can offer global soil moisture information, such as Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) data. AMSR-E has been used to provide soil moisture all over the world, with a coarse resolution of 25 km × 25 ...

Evaluation of the Surface Water Distribution in North-Central Namibia Based on MODIS and AMSR Series
Semi-arid North-central Namibia has high potential for rice cultivation because large seasonal wetlands (oshana) form during the rainy season. Evaluating the distribution of surface water would reveal the area potentially suitable for rice cultivation ...
