Global long-term passive microwave satellite-based retrievals of vegetation optical depth
2011
Geophysical Research Letters
Introduction [2] Vegetation dynamics play an important role in the hydrological, energy and carbon cycles, through influences of land cover change on hydrologic responses, interactions with climate and ...
The VOD increases with vegetation density; over dense vegetation (e.g., tropical rainforest), the transmissivity gets close to zero and the microwave emissions are dominated by vegetation. [6] The VOD ...

Simulating the influence of temperature on microwave transmissivity of trees during winter observed by spaceborne microwave radiometery
2020
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Forest transmissivity is a key parameter for understanding spaceborne and airborne observations of the Earth's land surface because not only does it influences the proportion of sub-canopy upwelling microwave ...
In frozen winter conditions, our previous study has indicated that observed microwave transmissivity of trees is also strongly influenced by temperature. ...

Parameterization of the Land Parameter Retrieval Model for L-Band Observations Using the NAFE'05 Data Set
2009
IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters
However, care should be taken when using the proposed dynamic roughness model as it is based on a limited data set, and a more thorough evaluation is necessary to test the validity of this new approach ...
It was found that model convergence could only be achieved with a temporally dynamic roughness. The roughness was parameterized according to incidence angle and soil moisture. ...
While it excludes the complex parameterization of the vegetation, a dynamic roughness model had to be included. ...

Mapping recharge from space: roadmap to meeting the grand challenge
2006
Hydrogeology Journal
The approaches rely on microwave remote sensing in order to measure land surface states in the presence of atmosphere and vegetation cover that attenuate and disturb the signal as it travels from the surface ...
This hydrologic flux is intimately related to the distribution and functioning of vegetation cover and type. In turn, it also plays a significant role in the distribution of vegetation. ...
To penetrate vegetation, soil surface, and deep soil, lower-frequency microwaves are needed due to their ability to travel through significant vegetation canopies and through soil with a low attenuation ...
