In 2009, the International Soil Moisture Network (ISMN) was initiated as a community effort,
funded by the European Space Agency, to serve as a centralised data hosting facility for …

Soil moisture observations are of broad scientific interest and practical value for a wide
range of applications. The scientific community has made significant progress in estimating …

Soil moisture (SM) is a key hydrologic state variable that is of significant importance for
numerous Earth and environmental science applications that directly impact the global …

Abstract Climate Data Records of soil moisture are fundamental for improving our
understanding of long-term dynamics in the coupled water, energy, and carbon cycles over …

Satellite remote sensing technology has been widely used to estimate surface soil moisture.
Numerous efforts have been devoted to develop global soil moisture products. However …

This paper presents a community effort to develop good practice guidelines for the validation
of global coarse-scale satellite soil moisture products. We provide theoretical background, a …

Abstract Information about the spatiotemporal variability of soil moisture is critical for many
purposes, including monitoring of hydrologic extremes, irrigation scheduling, and prediction …

Soil moisture is a key environmental variable, important to, eg, farmers, meteorologists, and
disaster management units. Here, we present a method to retrieve surface soil moisture …

Surface soil moisture (SM) is essential for existence of biotic lifeform and geophysical
processes. However, with increasing global warming due to climatic changes, its …

In this study we evaluate the skill of a new, merged soil moisture product (ECV_SM) that has
been developed in the framework of the European Space Agency's Water Cycle Multi …
