Potential of bias correction for downscaling passive microwave and soil moisture data
Abstract
Abstract Passive microwave satellites such as Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity or Soil Moisture Active Passive observe brightness temperature (TB) and retrieve soil moisture at a spatial resolution greater than most hydrological processes. Bias correction is proposed as a simple method to disaggregate soil moisture to a scale more appropriate for hydrological applications. Temporal stability of soil moisture and TB was demonstrated at the …
