Evaluating high resolution soil moisture maps in the framework of the ESA CCI

IGARSS 2022 - 2022 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2022
<p>Surface Soil Moisture (SM) plays a key role in the Earth water cycle and many hydrological processes (Koster 2004), it is essential for accurate weather forecasting (Rodriguez-Fernandez 2019) and agriculture management (Guerif 2000). SM was also identified as one of the 50 “Essential Climate Variables” (ECVs)

Assessment of an ESA CCI Soil Moisture data assimilation framework

2022
<p>We present a comprehensive assessment of a land surface data assimilation system, in which microwave-based satellite retrievals of surface soil moisture from the combined active-passive ESA CCI Soil Moisture product are assimilated into the Noah-MP model, using a one-dimensional Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) within the NASA Land ...

Assessment of SMAP and ESA CCI Soil Moisture Over the Great Lakes Basin

IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020
Satellite microwave remote sensing holds the capability to collect large-scale spatially distributed surface soil moisture information. This study presents an assessment of the soil moisture retrievals derived from the NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) (SPL3SMP_E V003 and V002) and the ESA Climate Change Initiative (CCI) Combined and Passive ...

Drought Monitoring and Evaluation by ESA CCI Soil Moisture Products Over the Yellow River Basin

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2019
The multisatellite-retrieved soil moisture (SM) products released by the Europe Space Agency's Climate Change Initiative (ESA CCI) program have been widely used in numerous fields, including drought monitoring. In this article, a cumulative distribution function is applied to match the simulated SM from the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model ...

Climate Response to Introduction of the ESA CCI Land Cover Data to the NCAR CESM

Climate Dynamics, 2021
The European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative Land Cover data (ESA CCI-LC, from 1992 to 2015) is introduced to the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Earth System Model version 1.2.1 (NCAR CESM1.2.1). In comparison with the original land surface data in the Community Land Model version 4 (ORG), the new data features notable land ...

ESA CCI and C3S Soil Moisture - New developments and recent applications

2023
ESA CCI Soil Moisture (SM) is a long-term global Climate Data Record of soil water content stored in the surface soil layer, derived from satellite observations in the microwave domain. To make it suitable for long-term analyses of the climate system, ESA CCI SM merges observations from a total of 19 satellite radiometers and scatterometers (active and

ESA CCI and C3S Soil Moisture Products: Generation and Quality Assurance

2021
<p>Soil moisture Climate Data Records (CDRs) produced from active and passive microwave sensors are valuable for the study of the coupled water, energy and carbon cycles over land on a global scale. As part of the European Space Agency (ESA) Climate Change Initiative (CCI) a multi-decadal CDR is produced by systematically combining Level ...

Visualisation and Analysis of Climate Data in the ESA CCI Toolbox

2018
Climate Change is impacting our lives, tomorrow as well as today. Understanding Climate Change requires data, people, and enabling technologies. The European Space Agency (ESA) is running the Climate Change Initiative (CCI), a 140M€ programme, to provide an adequate, comprehensive, and timely response to the extremely challenging set of requirements ...
