Global downscaling of remotely sensed soil moisture using neural networks [PDF]
Characterizing soil moisture at spatiotemporal scales relevant to land surface processes (i.e., of the order of 1 km) is necessary in order to quantify its role in regional feedbacks between the land surface and the atmospheric boundary layer ...

SPATIAL DOWNSCALING OF SMAP SOIL MOISTURE USING THE MODIS AND SRTM OBSERVATIONS [PDF]
The main objective of this study is the spatial downscaling of Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) soil moisture (36 km) using the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) products.

SMAP soil moisture drying more rapid than observed in situ following rainfall events
We examine soil drying rates by comparing surface soil moisture observations from the NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission to those from networks of in situ probes upscaled to SMAP's sensing footprint.

Evaluation of SMOS, SMAP, AMSR2 and FY-3C soil moisture products over China.
Microwave remote sensing can provide long-term near-surface soil moisture data on regional and global scales. Conducting standardized authenticity tests is critical to the effective use of observed data products in models, data assimilation, and various ...

Spatially Interpolated CYGNSS Data Improve Downscaled 3 km SMAP/CYGNSS Soil Moisture
Soil moisture data with both a fine spatial scale and a short global repeat period would benefit many hydrologic and climatic applications. Since the radar transmitter malfunctioned on NASA’s Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) in 2015, SMAP soil ...

Camels as a Climate‐Resilient Linchpin for Sustainable Development in Global Drylands
ABSTRACT Camels represent a significant, yet underutilized, asset for advancing integrated sustainable development in the world's expanding drylands. Previous reviews have examined camels' physiology, milk composition, or pastoral systems in isolation; this review examines their potential as a climate‐resilient linchpin for food systems by synthesizing
