First Evaluation of Topography on GNSS-R: An Empirical Study Based on a Digital Elevation Model
Understanding the effects of Earth’s surface topography on Global Navigation Satellite Systems Reflectometry (GNSS-R) space-borne data is important to calibrate experimental measurements, so as to provide accurate soil moisture content (SMC ...

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

SMAP Salinity Retrievals near the Sea-Ice Edge Using Multi-Channel AMSR2 Brightness Temperatures
Sea-ice contamination in the antenna field of view constitutes a large error source in retrieving sea-surface salinity (SSS) with the spaceborne Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) L-band radiometer.

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.

Controls on surface soil drying rates observed by SMAP and simulated by the Noah land surface model [PDF]
Drydown periods that follow precipitation events provide an opportunity to assess controls on soil evaporation on a continental scale. We use SMAP (Soil Moisture Active Passive) observations and Noah simulations from drydown periods to quantify the ...
