Spatial Downscaling of ESA CCI Soil Moisture Data Based on Deep Learning With an Attention Mechanism

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Soil moisture (SM) is a critical variable affecting ecosystem carbon and water cycles and their feedback to climate change. In this study, we proposed a convolutional neural network (CNN) model embedded with a residual block and attention module, named ...

SM2RAIN-CCI: a new global long-term rainfall data set derived from ESA CCI soil moisture [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2018
Accurate and long-term rainfall estimates are the main inputs for several applications, from crop modeling to climate analysis. In this study, we present a new rainfall data set (SM2RAIN-CCI) obtained from the inversion of the satellite soil moisture (

New Downscaling Approach Using ESA CCI SM Products for Obtaining High Resolution Surface Soil Moisture

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
ESA CCI SM products have provided remotely-sensed surface soil moisture (SSM) content with the best spatial and temporal coverage thus far, although its output spatial resolution of 25 km is too coarse for many regional and local applications.

Downscaling ESA CCI Soil Moisture Based on Soil and Vegetation Component Temperatures Derived From MODIS Data

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
The European Space Agency's Climate Change Initiative (ESA CCI) soil moisture could provide long-time microwave-retrieved soil moisture data but is limited to regional applications due to the low resolution (25 km). A new method of downscaling ESA

Spatially Distributed Evaluation of ESA CCI Soil Moisture Products in a Northern Boreal Forest Environment

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Several previous studies have discussed the challenges in remotely sensed soil moisture retrievals over northern boreal environments. However, very few studies have focused solely on an evaluation of these products specifically over these areas.

Mapping of ESA's Climate Change Initiative land cover data to plant functional types for use in the CLASSIC land model [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2023
Plant functional types (PFTs) are used to represent vegetation distribution in land surface models (LSMs). Previous studies have shown large differences in the geographical distribution of PFTs currently used in various LSMs, which may arise from the ...

Comparison of ESA climate change initiative land cover to CORINE land cover over Eastern Europe and the Baltic States from a regional climate modeling perspective

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation, 2021
High-quality land use and land cover (LULC) information is of crucial importance for the performance of regional climate models (RCMs), in particular at high spatial resolutions down to convection permitting scales below 4 km.

Gross and net land cover changes in the main plant functional types derived from the annual ESA CCI land cover maps (1992–2015) [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2018
Land-use and land-cover change (LULCC) impacts local energy and water balance and contributes on global scale to a net carbon emission to the atmosphere.
