Time-Series Ratio Algorithm for Nisar Soil Moisture Retrieval
Abstract
The NASA ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission is currently under development and will provide global L-band radar observations that will be helpful for various soil moisture applications. The final NISAR soil moisture product will have 200m spatial resolution with 12-day exact revisit time. A time-series ratio algorithm was implemented using NISAR simulated UAVSAR data collected during the SMAPVEX12 field experiment. In this paper, the performance of the time series ratio algorithm was assessed using in situ observations. Performance of the soil moisture retrieval algorithm was also assessed for dual polarization and quad-polarization observations modes.
