Soil Moisture Experiments 2003 (SMEX03) was the second in a series of field campaigns using the NOAA Polarimetric Scanning Radiometer (PSR/CX) designed to validate brightness temperature data and soil moisture retrieval algorithms for the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer on the Aqua satellite. Data from the TRMM Microwave Imager were also used for X-band comparisons. The study was conducted in different climate/vegetation regions of the U.S. (Alabama, Georgia, Oklahoma). In the current investigation, more than one hundred flightlines of PSR/CX data were extensively processed to produce gridded brightness temperature products for the four study regions. Variations associated with soil moisture were not as large as hoped for due to the lack of significant rainfall in Oklahoma. Observations obtained over Alabama include a wide range of soil moisture and vegetation conditions. Comparisons were made between the PSR and AMSR for all sites. |
