Abstract

Passive microwave remote sensing observations at L-band provide key and global information on surface soil moisture and vegetation water content, which are related to the Earth water and carbon cycles. Only two space-borne L-band sensors are currently operating: SMOS, launched end of 2009 and thus p...
