Land surface temperature (LST) is a crucial parameter that reflects land–atmosphere
interaction and has thus attracted wide interest from geoscientists. Owing to the rapid …

Soil moisture (SM) is a key variable driving hydrologic, climatic, and ecological processes.
Although it is highly variable, both spatially and temporally, there is limited data availability …

Global soil moisture estimates from current satellite missions are suffering from inherent
discontinuous observations and coarse spatial resolution, which limit applications especially …

Abstract The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite can no longer directly deliver
high-resolution (9 km) soil moisture products with the failure of the onboard L-band radar …

Soil moisture plays a critical role in improving the weather and climate forecast and
understanding terrestrial ecosystem processes. It is a key hydrologic variable in agricultural …

Land surface temperature (LST) plays a key role in connecting land surface energy and
water exchanges with near-surface atmosphere. However, the spatial distribution of LST …

Microwave remote sensing technology has been applied to produce soil moisture (SM)
retrievals on a global scale for various studies and applications. However, due to the …

Soil moisture (SM) plays a critical role in drought monitoring, agricultural management, flood
forecasting, and other practical applications. However, the relatively coarse spatial …

Soil moisture (SM) plays an indispensable role in many practical applications, such as
drought monitoring, hydrologic applications and agricultural management. Passive …

Recent advances in L-band passive microwave remote sensing provide an unprecedented
