Journal ArticleDOI
From near-surface to root-zone soil moisture using an exponential filter: an assessment of the method based on in-situ observations and model simulations
Clément Albergel,Christoph Rudiger,Christoph Rudiger,Thierry Pellarin,Jean-Christophe Calvet,Nour-Ed-Dine Fritz,Francois Froissard,Dominique Suquia,Alphonse Petitpa,Bernard Piguet,Eric Martin +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a recursive exponential filter equation using a time constant, T, is used to compute a soil water index, and the Nash and Sutcliff coefficient is used as a criterion to optimize the T parameter for each ground station and for each model pixel of the synthetic data set.
Journal ArticleDOI
Downscaling SMOS-Derived Soil Moisture Using MODIS Visible/Infrared Data
Maria Piles,Adriano Camps,Mercè Vall-llossera,Ignasi Corbella,Rocco Panciera,Christoph Rudiger,Yann Kerr,Jeffrey P. Walker +7 more
TL;DR: Following the SMOS launch, a downscaling strategy for the estimation of soil moisture at high resolution from SMOS using MODIS VIS/IR data has been developed and is validated against in situ soil moisture data from the OZnet soil moisture monitoring network, in South-Eastern Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview of SMOS performance in terms of global soil moisture monitoring after six years in operation
Yann Kerr,Amen Al-Yaari,Nemesio Rodriguez-Fernandez,Marie Parrens,Beatriz Molero,Delphine Leroux,S. Bircher,Ali Mahmoodi,Arnaud Mialon,Philippe Richaume,Steven Delwart,Ahmad Al Bitar,Thierry Pellarin,Rajat Bindlish,Thomas J. Jackson,Christoph Rudiger,Philippe Waldteufel,Susanne Mecklenburg,Jean-Pierre Wigneron +18 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a global evaluation of different SMOS soil moisture (SM) products (SMOS-L2, SMOSL3, and SMOS-NN) was performed comparing products with those of model simulations and other satellites.
Journal ArticleDOI
An evaluation of ASCAT surface soil moisture products with in-situ observations in Southwestern France
Clément Albergel,Christoph Rudiger,Christoph Rudiger,Dominique Carrer,Jean-Christophe Calvet,Nour-Ed-Dine Fritz,Vahid Naeimi,Z Bartalis,S. Hasenauer +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the soil moisture measured in-situ at 5 cm is used to evaluate the normalised surface soil moisture (SSM) estimates derived from coarse-resolution (25 km) active microwave data of the ASCAT scatterometer instrument (onboard METOP), issued by EUMETSAT for a period of 6 months (April-September) in 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Intercomparison of ERS-Scat and AMSR-E Soil Moisture Observations with Model Simulations over France
Christoph Rudiger,Jean-Christophe Calvet,C. Gruhier,Thomas R. H. Holmes,Richard de Jeu,Wolfgang Wagner +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an intercomparison experiment of different space-borne platforms providing surface soil moisture information [Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for Earth Observing (AMSR-E) and European Remote Sensing Satellite Scatterometer (ERS-Scat)] with the reanalysis soil moisture predictions over France from the model suite of Systeme d'analyse fournissant des renseignements atmospheriques a la neige (SAFRAN), ISBA, and coupled model (MODCOU; SIM) of Meteo-France
