Joint assimilation of SMAP soil moisture and AMSR2 vegetation optical depth retrievals into the Noah-MP land surface model

open access: yes, 2023
As soil moisture and vegetation water content both affect the emissivity from the land surface, each of them can be derived from satellite-based passive microwave measurements. In this study, we use soil moisture retrievals from the 36 km SMAP L2 product

Opportunistic feeding by Antarctic krill in the eastern Weddell Gyre

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, is an important species in the Southern Ocean and is vulnerable to climate change. We studied the carbon sources for krill—specifically pelagic and ice‐associated (sympagic) particulate organic matter (POM), representing phytoplankton and sea‐ice algae, respectively—during March 2019 across three distinct ...

Evaluation of a New Merged Sea-Ice Concentration Dataset at 1 km Resolution from Thermal Infrared and Passive Microwave Satellite Data in the Arctic

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Sea-ice concentration (SIC) data with fine spatial resolution and spatially continuous coverage are needed, for example, for estimating heat fluxes. Passive microwave measurements of the Advanced Scanning Microwave Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) offer spatial ...

Towards improving Arctic mixed‐phase cloud representation in the ECMWF model using MOSAiC observations

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 779, July 2026 Part B.
Abstract The presence of Arctic clouds plays a crucial role in the evolution of the surface temperature of Arctic sea ice. However, large biases in cloud representation remain in state‐of‐the‐art weather and climate models. In this study, we use observational data from the one‐year Arctic ship campaign Multi‐disciplinary drifting Observatory for the ...

ASTRA: AMSR2-to-SMAP Image-to-Image TRAnslation for soil moisture conversion and radiative transfer model-based interpretation

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Soil moisture (SM) plays a central role in regulating land–atmosphere exchanges of water and energy and is therefore essential for climate and hydrological studies.

Global Land Surface Emissivity Estimation From AMSR2 Observations

open access: yesIEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2016
A reliable estimate of emissivity is critical for a wide range of applications for the atmosphere, the biosphere, the lithosphere, the cryosphere, and the hydrosphere. This study uses three years (August 2012 to July 2015) of data from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-2 sensor that is onboard the Global Change Observation Mission 1st Water ...

The Evidence for Linearly Scaling Ocean Gas Exchange With Sea Ice Needs Strengthening

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Polar oceans are critical components of the oceanic uptake of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Estimates of this uptake across the air‐sea interface require parameterizations of gas transfer velocity that account for variable sea ice concentrations.
