Downscaling Microwave Soil Moisture Products with SM-RDNet for Semiarid Mining Areas
Water, 2022 Surface soil moisture (SM), as a crucial ecological element, is significant to monitor in semiarid mining areas characterized by aridity and little rainfall. The passive microwave remote sensing, which is not affected by weather, provides more accurate SM information, but the resolution is too coarse for mining areas. The existing downscaling method is

Stable Soil Moisture Alleviates Water Stress and Improves Morphogenesis of Tomato Seedlings
Horticulturae, 2023 Previous studies on soil water–plant relations have mostly focused on the soil water content (SWC), while the effect of soil moisture stability on plant growth has received surprisingly little attention.

Frequently Asked Questions about Soil Moisture Sensor Irrigation Controllers (SMS)
EDIS, 2015 A soil moisture sensor (SMS) is a device that detects how much moisture is in the soil and prevents an irrigation system from running when it is not needed. This 4-page fact sheet explains how the technology functions as well as how to install, program, operate, and maintain an SMS for a money- and water-wise sustainable home landscape that’s lush and ...

SGD-SM: Generating Seamless Global Daily AMSR2 Soil Moisture Long-term Productions (2013–2019) [PDF]
, 2020 Abstract. High quality and long-term soil moisture productions are significant for hydrologic monitoring and agricultural management. However, the acquired daily soil moisture productions are incomplete in global land (just about 30 %∼80 % coverage ratio), due to the satellite orbit coverage and the limitations of soil moisture retrieving algorithms ...

Surface moisture and temperature trends anticipate drought conditions linked to wildfire activity in the Iberian Peninsula [PDF]
, 2016 In this study, drought conditions involving risk of fires are detected applying SMOS-derived soil moisture data and land surface temperature models. Moisture-temperature (SM-LST) patterns studied between 2010 and 2014 were linked to main fire regimes in ...

The impact of near-surface soil moisture assimilation at subseasonal, seasonal, and inter-annual timescales [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2015 A 9 year record of Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer – Earth Observing System (AMSR-E) soil moisture retrievals are assimilated into the Catchment land surface model at four locations in the US. The assimilation is evaluated using the unbiased mean
