摘要: SMAP (Soil Moisture Active and Passive) radiometer observations at ∼40km resolution are routinely assimilated into the NASA Catchment Land Surface Model to generate 9-km Level-4 Soil product. This study demonstrates that adding high-resolution radar from Sentinel-1 assimilation can increase spatio-temporal accuracy of soil moisture estimates. Radar were either separately or simultaneously with observations. Assimilation impact was assessed by comparing 3-hourly, surface root-zone simulations in situ measurements core validation sites sparse networks, May 2015 December 2016. The consistently improved moisture, whereas impacts mostly neutral. Relatively larger improvements obtained assimilation. joint performed best, demonstrating complementary value
