MoistureMap: Multi-sensor Retrieval of Soil Moisture Mahdi Allahmoradi PhD Candidate Supervisor: Jeffrey Walker Contributors: Dongryeol Ryu, Chris Rudiger

This research will test the hypothesis that more accurate soil moisture information can be derived from SMOS if vegetation and soil temperature information are derived from other coincident remote sensing observations at higher resolution. Research Aim Ground/RS Data, Models, … SMOS MoistureMap

SMOS overview SMOS  Approximate launch date: May 2009  Lifetime: Minimum 3 years  Frequency: L-band (21cm GHz)  Orbit: Sun-synchronous  Overpass time: 6 am - 6 pm  Temporal resolution: 3 Days  Spatial resolution: km (35 km at centre of Field of View) SOURCE: ESA

Theoretical Aspect large contrast liquid waterdry soil. The theory behind microwave remote sensing of soil moisture is based on the large contrast between the dielectric properties of liquid water and dry soil. - For smooth bare soil (Planck’s law): - Vegetated soil (Tau - omega model): equation of Ulaby et al. (1986)

Vegetation Effect Jackson, 93 Wigneron et al. 07 * b, b’ and b” are empirical parameters Vegetation Effect: Estimation of VWC using Vegetation indices Reduced sensitivity to VWC changes in dense vegetation (Jackson, 2004) SWIR 1640 nm suitable for croplands SWIR 2130 nm suitable for native vegetation (Maggioni, et al. 2006)
