The Soil Moisture Active Passive Experiments: Validation of the SMAP Products in Australia
The fourth and fifth Soil Moisture Active Passive Experiments (SMAPEx-4 and -5) were conducted at the beginning of the SMAP operational phase, May and September 2015, to: 1) evaluate the SMAP microwave observations and derived soil moisture (SM) products and 2) intercompare with the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) and Aquarius missions over the

Quantifying the potential of using Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) soil moisture variability to predict subsurface water dynamics [PDF]
Abstract. Advances in satellite Earth observation have opened up new opportunities for global monitoring of soil moisture (SM) at fine to medium resolution, but satellite remote sensing can only measure the near-surface soil moisture (SSM). As such, it is critically important to examine the potential of satellite SSM measurements to derive the water ...

Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) L-Band Microwave Radiometer Post-Launch Calibration Upgrade [PDF]
The Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) microwave radiometer is a fully polarimetric L-band radiometer flown on the SMAP satellite in a 6 AM/6 PM sun-synchronous orbit at 685 km altitude. After the SMAP L1B_TB data product version 3 was released in 2016, the radiometer has been undergoing further calibration and validation with the goal of reducing ...

Radio-frequency interference (RFI) mitigation for the soil moisture active/passive (SMAP) radiometer [PDF]
The presence of anthropogenic RFI is expected to adversely impact soil moisture measurement by NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive mission. The digital signal processing approach and preliminary design for detecting and mitigating this RFI is presented in this paper. This approach is largely based upon the work of Johnson [1] and Ruf [2].
