SMOS-IC: An Alternative SMOS Soil Moisture and Vegetation Optical Depth Product [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2017 The main goal of the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission over land surfaces is the production of global maps of soil moisture (SM) and vegetation optical depth (τ) based on multi-angular brightness temperature (TB) measurements at L-band. The

A new space technology for ocean observation: the SMOS mission [PDF]
Scientia Marina, 2012 Capability for sea surface salinity observation was an important gap in ocean remote sensing in the last few decades of the 20th century. New technological developments during the 1990s at the European Space Agency led to the proposal of SMOS (Soil ...

2000 days of SMOS at the Barcelona Expert Centre: a tribute to the work of Jordi Font [PDF]
Scientia Marina, 2016 Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) is the first satellite mission capable of measuring sea surface salinity and soil moisture from space. Its novel instrument (the L-band radiometer MIRAS) has required the development of new algorithms to process ...

Integration of SMAP and SMOS Observations [PDF]
IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018 Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission and the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) missions provide brightness temperature and soil moisture estimates every 2–3 days. SMAP brightness temperature observations were compared with SMOS observations at 40° incidence angle. The brightness temperatures from the two missions are not consistent.
