Abstract:<p>Calibration of distributed hydrological models needs to include spatial information of the hydrological processes in order to guarantee a robust spatial representation of the model state variables. Satellite remote sensing monitoring the Earth in a temporal and spatial comprehensive way stands out as a valuable resource of this kind of information. Surface soil moisture (SSM) plays a key role in the description of the hydrological cycle, especially in semi-arid areas. Nevertheless, the coarse … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
