TL;DR: The ERA5-Land dataset as mentioned in this paper is an enhanced global dataset for the land component of the fifth generation of European ReAnalysis (ERA5), hereafter referred to as ERA5Land.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wouter Dorigo,Alexander Gruber,R.A.M. de Jeu,Wolfgang Wagner,Tobias Stacke,Alexander Loew,Clément Albergel,Luca Brocca,Daniel Chung,Robert Parinussa,R. Kidd +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated 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-mission Observation Strategy and Climate Change Initiative projects.
Journal ArticleDOI
ERA-Interim/Land: a global land surface reanalysis data set
Gianpaolo Balsamo,Clément Albergel,Anton Beljaars,Souhail Boussetta,Eric Brun,Hannah Cloke,Dick Dee,Emanuel Dutra,Joaquín Muñoz-Sabater,Florian Pappenberger,P. de Rosnay,Timothy N. Stockdale,Frederic Vitart +12 more
TL;DR: The ERA-Interim/Land dataset as discussed by the authors provides a global integrated and coherent estimate of soil moisture and snow water equivalent, which can also be used for the initialization of numerical weather prediction and climate models.
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.
