SMOS-IC: An Alternative SMOS Soil Moisture and Vegetation Optical Depth Product
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
