Status of GCOM-W1/AMSR2 development and science activities

SPIE Proceedings, 2008
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is developing the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-2 (AMSR2). AMSR2 will be onboard the GCOM-W1 satellite, which is the first satellite of the Japan's Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM). The second satellite of GCOM will be GCOM-C1, which will carry the Secondgeneration Global Imager (SGLI ...

Validation and Analysis of the Smap and Amsr2 Freeze/Thaw Dataset Over China

IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019
Land surface freeze/thaw (FT) state is important for identifying the variable of carbon-nitrogen, water and energy cycling and soil erosion. The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission produces global and northern hemispheric daily landscape FT dataset [1] at a spatial resolution of 36 km from L-band radiometer.

A novel AMSR2 retrieval algorithm for global C-band vegetation optical depth and soil moisture (AMSR2 IB): Parameters' calibration, evaluation and inter-comparison

Remote Sensing of Environment
Effective monitoring of soil and vegetation properties on a global scale is essential for better understanding climate changes, hydrological dynamics, and ecological processes. Passive microwave remote sensing at C-band radio frequency, with long observation period and relatively high penetration capability, has been widely used to retrieve soil ...
