In this study, we used a multilinear regression approach to retrieve surface soil moisture from NASA's Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite data to create a global dataset of surface soil moisture which is consistent with ESA's Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite retrieved surface soil moisture. This was achieved by calibrating coefficients of the regression model using SMOS soil moisture and horizontal and vertical brightness temperatures (TB), over the 2013 — 2014 period. Next, this model was applied to recent SMAP TB data from 31/03/2015–08/09/2015. The retrieved surface soil moisture from SMAP (referred here to as SMAP-reg) was compared to the operational SMAP L3 surface soil moisture retrieved using the single channel algorithm. Both exhibit comparable temporal dynamics with a good agreement of correlation (correlation coefficient R mostly > 0.8) between the SMAP-reg and the operational SMAP L3 surface soil moisture products.< Leer menos
