The added-value of remotely-sensed soil moisture data for agricultural drought detection in Argentina
2021
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
In this research we explored the performance of the satellite-based Soil Moisture Agricultural Drought Index (SMADI) for agricultural drought detection in Argentina during 2010-2015, and compared it with ...
Furthermore, field precipitation-based indices, yet simple and widely used, showed not to be suitable indicators for detection of agricultural drought for Argentina, neither in the 1-month nor in the 3 ...
Yet our results underline the value of using readily-available satellite-based soil moisture products for early detection of agricultural drought. ...

SMAP soil moisture improves global evapotranspiration
2018
Remote Sensing of Environment
As water for ET is sourced from the soil, incorporating soil moisture into global remote sensing algorithms of ET should, in theory, improve performance, especially in water-limited regions. ...
Satellite-driven ET models provide global estimates, but many of the ET algorithms have been designed independently of soil moisture observations. ...
The results from these sites demonstrate soil moisture has no added value in areas of high soil water availability. ...
