Spatially Interpolated CYGNSS Data Improve Downscaled 3 km SMAP/CYGNSS Soil Moisture
Soil moisture data with both a fine spatial scale and a short global repeat period would benefit many hydrologic and climatic applications. Since the radar transmitter malfunctioned on NASA’s Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) in 2015, SMAP soil ...

Investigation of the Occurrence of Nighttime Topside Ionospheric Irregularities in Low-Latitude and Equatorial Regions Using CYGNSS Satellites [PDF]
By using multi-satellite observations of the L1 signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) from the Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) taken in 2017, we present the occurrence of nighttime topside ionospheric irregularities in low-latitude and ...

Use of an End-to-End-Simulator to Analyze CYGNSS. [PDF]
AbstractTropical convection during the onset of two Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) events, in October and December of 2011, was simulated using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model. Observations from the Dynamics of the MJO (DYNAMO) field campaign were assimilated into the WRF Model for an improved simulation of the mesoscale features of ...
