Error characterisation of global active and passive microwave soil moisture datasets [PDF]
Understanding the error structures of remotely sensed soil moisture observations is essential for correctly interpreting observed variations and trends in the data or assimilating them in hydrological or numerical weather prediction models. Nevertheless,

Blending multi-source evapotranspiration datasets via triple collocation approach [PDF]
In this research, we provided a framework to merge well-known satellite- and reanalysis-based global ET products (GLDAS, GLEAM, MOD16, and MERRA) using the triple collocation (TC) along with least-square based merging scheme without the utilization of high-quality ground measurement over East Asia.

Inconsistencies of interannual variability and trends in long-term satellite leaf area index products [PDF]
Understanding the long-term performance of global satellite leaf area index (LAI) products is important for global change research. However, few effort has been devoted to evaluating the long-term time-series consistencies of LAI products.

Validation of ocean wind and wave data using triple collocation [PDF]
Significant wave height and wind speed fields from ERA‐40 are validated against buoy, ERS‐1, and Topex altimeter measurements. To do so, we propose and apply a triple collocation statistical model. The model takes into account the random errors in observations and model results and allows the estimation of the variances of the errors.
