RISModeling Soil Moisture and Surface Flux Variability with an Untuned Land Surface Scheme: A Case Study from the Southern Great Plains 1997 Hydrology Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Parameterization for Land?Atmosphere?Cloud Exchange (PLACE), a typical surface?vegetation?atmosphere transfer (SVAT) parameterization, was used in a case study of a 2500 km2 area in southwestern Oklahoma for 9?16 July ...
Estimation of Surface Heat Fluxes at Field Scale Using Surface Layer Versus Mixed-Layer Atmospheric Variables with Radiometric Temperature Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Radiometric surface temperature observations TR(?), near-surface meteorological/surface energy flux (METFLUX), and atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) data were collected during the Washita ?94 Experiment conducted in the ...
Uncertainty of Reference Pixel Soil Moisture Averages Sampled at SMAP Core Validation Sites
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDespite extensive efforts to maximize ground coverage and improve upscaling functions within core validation sites (CVS) of the NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission, spatial averages of point-scale soil ...
An Intercomparison Study of Algorithms for Downscaling SMAP Radiometer Soil Moisture Retrievals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In the past decade, a variety of algorithms have been introduced to downscale passive microwave soil moisture observations. Some exploit the soil moisture information from optical/thermal sensing of land surface temperature ...
