Many physical, chemical and biological processes taking place at the land surface are
strongly influenced by the amount of water stored within the upper soil layers. Therefore …

Soil moisture is an essential climate variable influencing land–atmosphere interactions, an
essential hydrologic variable impacting rainfall–runoff processes, an essential ecological …

Abstract Climate Data Records of soil moisture are fundamental for improving our
understanding of long-term dynamics in the coupled water, energy, and carbon cycles over …

Abstract Information about the spatiotemporal variability of soil moisture is critical for many
purposes, including monitoring of hydrologic extremes, irrigation scheduling, and prediction …

Soil moisture is a key environmental variable, important to, eg, farmers, meteorologists, and
disaster management units. Here, we present a method to retrieve surface soil moisture …

Core Ideas Satellites, particularly at L‐band frequency, can globally map near‐surface soil
moisture. Near‐surface moisture is extended to the root zone using models and data …

Soil moisture is widely recognized as a key parameter in the mass and energy balance
between the land surface and the atmosphere and, hence, the potential societal benefits of …

Long-term and large-scale remotely sensed and reanalysis soil moisture products of the
Tibetan Plateau are very important for understanding the land–atmosphere interactions in …
