Spatial Estimation of Soil Moisture and Salinity with Neural Kriging
The study was carried out with 107 measurements of volumetric soil water content (SWC) and electrical conductivity (EC) for soil profile (0-30 cm) and the estimating accuracy of ordinary kriging (OK) and back-propagation neural network (BPNN) was compared. The results showed that BPNN method predicted a slightly better accurate SWC than that of OK, but differences between both methods were not ...
متن کاملTransport Distances and Irrigation Models
Some variational models have been recently introduced to the aim of modeling ramified structures, such as trees, rivers and so on. We introduce a general scheme in which the notion of transport distance is introduced starting from a general transport cost functional, through relaxation arguments. Then we apply this general framework to the irrigation cost, which is a particular cost functional ...
متن کاملSea Surface Salinity Retrieval within the ESA Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) Mission
The SMOS (Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity) mission will provide from 2007 onwards global maps of soil moisture over land and sea surface salinity over ocean. The radiometry group of the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) in Barcelona has been involved either in the definition of the SMOS single payload, MIRAS (Microwave Imaging Radiometer by Aperture Synthesis), or in the organization of ...
متن کاملA Novel Bias Correction Method for Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) Soil Moisture: Retrieval Ensembles
Bias correction is a very important pre-processing step in satellite data assimilation analysis, as data assimilation itself cannot circumvent satellite biases. We introduce a retrieval algorithm-specific and spatially heterogeneous Instantaneous Field of View (IFOV) bias correction method for Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) soil moisture. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first...
متن کاملSoil moisture retrieval from space: the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission
Microwave radiometry at low frequencies (L-band: 1.4 GHz, 21 cm) is an established technique for estimating surface soil moisture and sea surface salinity with a suitable sensitivity. However, from space, large antennas (several meters) are required to achieve an adequate spatial resolution at L-band. So as to reduce the problem of putting into orbit a large filled antenna, the possibility of u...
