Passive/active microwave soil moisture disaggregation using SMAP data
Soil moisture at high spatial resolution is required for various land processes related studies. However, currently the resolution of passive microwave retrieved soil moisture is low. To solve this problem, a soil moisture disaggregation algorithm based on thermal inertia relationship between daily temperature change and average soil moisture modulated

Drought monitoring with soil moisture active passive (SMAP) measurements
Abstract Recent launch of space-borne systems to estimate surface soil moisture may expand the capability to map soil moisture deficit and drought with global coverage. In this study, we use Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) soil moisture geophysical retrieval products from passive L-band radiometer to evaluate its applicability to forming ...

Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) Mission concept
SPIE Proceedings, 2008Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) Mission is one of the first satellites being developed by NASA in response to the National Research Council's Decadal Survey. SMAP will make global measurements of the moisture present at Earth's land surface and will distinguish frozen from thawed land surfaces. Direct observations of soil moisture and freeze/thaw

The Soil Moisture Active/Passive Mission (SMAP)
IGARSS 2008 - 2008 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2008The Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) mission will deliver global views of soil moisture content and its freeze/thaw state that are critical terrestrial water cycle state variables. Polarized measurements obtained with a shared antenna L-band radar and radiometer system will allow accurate estimation of soil moisture at hydrometeorological scale (10 ...

The Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) radar
2008 IEEE Radar Conference, 2008The soil moisture active/passive (SMAP) mission is a NASA mission identified by the NRC ldquodecadal surveyrdquo to measure both soil moisture and freeze/thaw state from space. The mission will use both active radar and passive radiometer instruments at L-band. In order to achieve a wide swath at sufficiently high resolution for both active and passive

Active–Passive Soil Moisture Retrievals During the SMAP Validation Experiment 2012
IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2016The goal of this study is to assess the performance of the active–passive algorithm for the NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive mission (SMAP) using airborne and ground observations from a field campaign. The SMAP active–passive algorithm disaggregates the coarse-resolution radiometer brightness temperature ( $TB$ ) using high-resolution radar ...
