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

IEEE 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

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

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