A Combined Optical-Microwave Method to Retrieve Soil Moisture Over Vegetated Areas.
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing(2012)
Abstract
A simple approach for correcting for the effect of vegetation in the estimation of the surface soil moisture (wS) from L-band passive microwave observations is presented in this study. The approach is based on semi-empirical relationships between soil moisture and the polarized reflectivity including the effect of the vegetation optical depth which is parameterized as a function of the normalized ...
