Operational assimilation of ASCAT surface soil wetness at the Met Office [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011 Currently, no extensive, near real time, global soil moisture observation network exists. Therefore, the Met Office global soil moisture analysis scheme has instead used observations of screen temperature and humidity.

Offshore Wind Resources Assessment from Multiple Satellite Data and WRF Modeling over South China Sea [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2015 Using accurate inputs of wind speed is crucial in wind resource assessment, as predicted power is proportional to the wind speed cubed. This study outlines a methodology for combining multiple ocean satellite winds and winds from WRF simulations in order
