摘要
Soil moisture is a very important boundary parameter in numerical weather prediction at different spatial and temporal scales, controlling the exchange of water and energy between the atmosphere and land surface. Satellite-based microwave radiometric observations are considered to be the best for soil moisture remote sensing because of their high sensitivity, as well as their all-weather and day-night observation capabilities with high repeativity. In this study, an attempt has been made to assess the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-Earth Observing System (AMSR-EOS) soil moisture product over India. The AMSR-E soil moisture product has been assessed using in situ soil moisture observations made by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) during the monsoon period (May-August) for the years 2002-2006 over 18 meteorological stations. Apart from assessing AMSR-E soil moisture retrieval accuracy, this study also investigates the effect of vegetation, topography and coastal water contamination, and determines the regions where the AMSR-E soil moisture product could be useful for different applications.
