Sentinel-1 high resolution soil moisture

Abstract

The systematic retrieval of near surface soil moisture (SSM) fields at high resolution (e.g., 0.1-1.0 km) is a challenging task that requires the exploitation of new retrieval algorithms and SAR data with advanced observational capabilities (in terms of spatial/temporal resolution, radiometric accuracy, very large swath, long term continuity and rapid data dissemination). The launch of the Sentinel-1 (S-1) constellation provides these capabilities and calls for the development and validation of pre-operational SSM products at high resolution. The objective of this paper is to present and initially assess a SSM retrieval algorithm developed in view of S-1 data exploitation. The activity is supported by a large scientific community engaged in fostering a more effective interaction between researchers working in the field of high and low resolution SSM retrieval.
