Evaluating an Improved Parameterization of the Soil Emission in L-MEB

In the forward model [L-band microwave emission of the biosphere (L-MEB)] used in the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity level-2 retrieval algorithm, modeling of the roughness effects is based on a simple semiempirical approach using three main “roughness” model parameters:$H_{R}$,$Q_{R}$, and$N_{R}$....
