This study presents a back propagation neural network (BPNN) method to rebuild a global
and long-term soil moisture (SM) series, adopting the microwave vegetation index (MVI) …

A combined L-band active and passive sensor for space-based ocean salinity observation
has been proposed in MIRSlab, CAS [1][2]. A ground-based prototype has been developed …

Water Cycle Observation Mission (WCOM) is an earth science mission proposed and
focused on the research of water cycle under global change. With its three dedicated …

Dual-frequency polarized scatterometer (DFPSCAT) is a pencil-beam rotating scatterometer
which is designed for snow water equivalent (SWE) measurement, and Doppler beam …

This paper presents a novel method to determine the phase shift of a phase retardation
plate. Primarily, the method has been developed for fully polarimetric calibration standards …

In order to satisfy a relatively high resolution for the retrieval of snow water equivalent, an
X/Ku-band dual-frequency full-polarized SCATterometer (DFPSCAT) onboard Water Cycle …

In order to satisfy a high resolution for the measurement of snow water equivalent, we use
the system of using the dual frequency (X-band 9.6 GHz and Ku-band 17GHz) and full …

A dual-frequency polarized scatterometer (DPSCAT) is proposed for the Chinese Water
Cycle Observation Mission (WCOM) to be launched around 2020. DPSCAT is used to …

Dual-Frequency Polarized Scatterometer (DFPSCAT) is a pencil-beam rotating
scatterometer which is used to measure snow water equivalence (SWE). Respecting the low …
