L-band Microwave Emission of the Biosphere (L-MEB) Model: Description and calibration against experimental data sets over crop fields
Jean-Pierre Wigneron,Yann Kerr,Philippe Waldteufel,K. Saleh,M. J. Escorihuela,P. Richaume,Paolo Ferrazzoli,P. de Rosnay,Robert J. Gurney,Jean-Christophe Calvet,Jennifer Grant,M. Guglielmetti,Brian K. Hornbuckle,C. Matzler,Thierry Pellarin,Mike Schwank +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed description of soil and vegetation modelling in L-MEB is given in order to address these needs, and the use of LMEB in soil moisture retrievals is evaluated for several experimental data sets over agricultural crops.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: SURFEX as mentioned in this paper is an externalized land and ocean surface platform that describes the surface fluxes and the evolution of four types of surfaces: nature, town, inland water and ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Operational readiness of microwave remote sensing of soil moisture for hydrologic applications
Wolfgang Wagner,Günter Blöschl,Paolo Pampaloni,Jean-Christophe Calvet,Bizzarro Bizzarri,Jean-Pierre Wigneron,Yann Kerr +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed recent progress made with retrieving surface soil moisture from three types of microwave sensors -radiometers, Synthetic Aperture Radars (SARs), and scatterometers.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Level 2 Passive Soil Moisture Product (L2_SM_P) as discussed by the authors was developed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) soil moisture active passive (SMAP) satellite mission and is available from the Distributed Active Archive Center at the National Snow and Ice Data Center.
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.
