Field Observations During the Third Microwave Water and Energy Balance Experiment (MicroWEX-3): June 16 - December 21, 2004

EDIS, 2019
The goal of MicroWEX-3 was to understand the land-atmosphere interactions during the growing season of cotton, and their effect on observed microwave brightness signatures at 6.7 GHz, matching that of the two satellite-based microwave radiometers (AMSR ...

A COMPARISON BETWEEN TWO ALGORITHMS FOR THE RETRIEVAL OF SOIL MOISTURE USING AMSR-E DATA

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2015
A comparison between two algorithms for estimating soil moisture with microwave satellite data was carried out by using the datasets collected on the four Agricultural Research Service (ARS) watershed sites in the US from 2002 to 2009.

The Role of Assimilating Deep Learning‐Enhanced AMSR‐E/2 Observations in European Soil Moisture Reanalysis

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Soil moisture is an essential climate variable that controls the exchange of water and energy between land and atmosphere, directly impacting land surface feedbacks. Satellite‐derived soil moisture provides valuable large‐scale information, but long‐term applications are limited by sensor lifespans, retrieval noise, and systematic biases ...

Impacts of atmospheric and oceanic factors on monthly and interannual variations of polynya in the East Siberian Sea and Chukchi Sea

Advances in Climate Change Research, 2021
As a key region of Northeast Passage, the polynya along the Siberian coast in the East Siberian and Chukchi Seas is important to local dynamic and thermodynamic processes, sea ice production and marine ecosystem.

Snow What? Strengths and Limitations of Different Snow Products in Western U.S. Mountains

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Reported values of average annual peak snow water equivalent (SWE) in the mountains of the western United States differ by more than a factor of five, from not enough water to fill Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the region, to enough water to fill Lake Mead five times. These products are not created equal.

AMSR-E melt patterns on the Southern Patagonia Icefield [PDF]

Journal of Glaciology, 2010
AbstractPassive-microwave 37 GHz vertically polarized (V) brightness temperature (Tb) measurements from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) are used to monitor the extent and timing of snowmelt on the Southern Patagonia Icefield (SPI) in Chile and Argentina. Twice daily Tb’s for 2002–08 for high-elevation (>

Beyond SMAP: Can GNSS‐R Platforms Ensure Continuity of Global Soil Moisture Observations?

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The absence of a definitive follow‐on strategy for the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission, which has already surpassed its planned mission lifetime, presents a significant challenge for the hydrological science community. GNSS‐Reflectometry (GNSS‐R), which exploits reflected satellite navigation signals, has emerged as a rapidly ...

Cross validations of radio-frequency interference signature in AMSR-E data using two detection methods

Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Letters, 2018
Radio-frequency interference (RFI) detection for low-frequency microwave measurements is an important step before these data are applied to geophysical parameter retrieval or data assimilation.

Warm Rain Rates from AMSR-E 89-GHz Brightness Temperatures Trained Using CloudSat Rain-Rate Observations

Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2019
Collocated CloudSat rain rates and Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for EOS (AMSR-E) 89-GHz brightness temperature Tb retrievals allow for the development of an algorithm to estimate light, warm rain statistics as a function of AMSR-E 89-GHz Tb for

Evaluation of High‐Resolution CORDEX‐CMIP6 Ocean Temperature Simulations for the Great Barrier Reef

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Longevity of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) relies on specific oceanic and atmospheric conditions that are quickly deteriorating under climate change. While global climate models (GCMs) provide insights into large‐scale processes, they often lack the resolution to capture regional nuances affecting the GBR.
