Assessing the Potential of Combined SMAP and In-Situ Soil Moisture for Improving Streamflow Forecast
Soil moisture is an essential hydrological variable for a suite of hydrological applications. Its spatio-temporal variability can be estimated using satellite remote sensing (e.g., SMOS and SMAP) and in-situ measurements.

Impact of day/night time land surface temperature in soil moisture disaggregation algorithms [PDF]
Since its launch in 2009, the ESA’s SMOS mission is providing global soil moisture (SM) maps at ~40 km, using the first L-band microwave radiometer on space.

AP-1 Recruits SMAP-1/SMAPs to the trans-Golgi Network to Promote Sorting in Polarized Epithelia
Coordinated AP-1 and clathrin coat assembly mediate secretory sorting on the trans-Golgi network (TGN) during conventional secretion. Here we found that SMAP-1/SMAPs deficiency caused the apical protein ERM-1 to accumulate on the basolateral side of the ...

Von Neumann Entropy-Preserving Quantum Operations [PDF]
For a given quantum state $\rho$ and two quantum operations $\Phi$ and $\Psi$, the information encoded in the quantum state $\rho$ is quantified by its von Neumann entropy $\S(\rho)$. By the famous Choi-Jamio{\l}kowski isomorphism, the quantum operation $

Mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) consisting of an ortho-hydroxy polyamide (HPA) matrix, and variable loads of a porous polymer network (PPN) were thermally treated to induce the transformation of HPA to polybenzoxazole (β-TR-PBO).

An Approach for Downscaling SMAP Soil Moisture by Combining Sentinel-1 SAR and MODIS Data
A method is proposed for the production of downscaled soil moisture active passive (SMAP) soil moisture (SM) data by combining optical/infrared data with synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data based on the random forest (RF) model.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Compact Polarimetry for Soil Moisture Retrieval
Soil moisture is a factor for risk analysis in the agricultural sector, yet access to temporally and spatially detailed data is challenging for much of the world’s agricultural extend. Significant effort has been focused on developing methodologies

Performance of SMAP and SMOS Salinity Products under Tropical Cyclones in the Bay of Bengal
To compare the accuracy of satellite salinity data of level-3 Soil Moisture Active Passive V4.0 (SSMAP) and debiased v5 CATDS level-3 Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SSMOS) before and after tropical cyclones (TCs) in the Bay of Bengal (BoB), this study
