RISFrom Near-Surface to Root-Zone Soil Moisture Using Year-Round Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Passive microwave remote sensing may provide quantitative information about the water content of a shallow near-surface soil layer. However, the variable of interest for applications such as short- and medium-term ...
Inclusion of a Third Soil Layer in a Land Surface Scheme Using the Force–Restore Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The inclusion of a third soil layer in the Interactions between Soil, Biosphere, and Atmosphere (ISBA) model is presented in this paper. The soil water content between the base of the root zone and the deep soil layer is ...
From Near-Surface to Root-Zone Soil Moisture Using Different Assimilation Techniques
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Root-zone soil moisture constitutes an important variable for hydrological and weather forecast models. Microwave radiometers like the L-band instrument on board the European Space Agency?s (ESA) future Soil Moisture and ...
Mapping Surface Parameters for Mesoscale Modeling in Forested and Deforested Southwestern Amazonia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Surface parameter digital maps of vegetation, soil, and relief are obtained over Rondônia, Brazil, covering the 5° ? 5° region 8°?13°S, 65°?60°W. Numerical maps of the natural landscape structure have been achieved by ...
An Intercomparison of ERS-Scat and AMSR-E Soil Moisture Observations with Model Simulations over France
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents a study undertaken in preparation of the work leading up to the assimilation of Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) observations into the land surface model (LSM) Interaction Soil Biosphere Atmosphere ...
