van Ingen Schenau, H.A. (author), Spaa, J. (author)This paper describes aspects of system design applied to the ARTEMIS environmental monitoring system of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. The design aspects are derived from characteristics of the monitoring function and are based on methods of rainfall and vegetation monitoring from satellite observations which...report 1992

Jeu, Richard A.M. (author), Wagner, W. (author), Holmes, T. R.H. (author), Dolman, A. J. (author), van de Giesen, N.C. (author), Friesen, J (author)Within the scope of the upcoming launch of a new water related satellite mission (SMOS) a global evaluation study was performed on two available global soil moisture products. ERS scatterometer surface wetness data was compared to AMSR-E soil moisture data. This study pointed out a strong similarity between both products in sparse to moderate...journal article 2008

Lu, Y. (author), Dong, Jianzhi (author), Steele-Dunne, S.C. (author)The spatial heterogeneity and temporal variation of soil moisture and surface heat fluxes are key to many geophysical and environmental studies. It has been demonstrated that they can be mapped by assimilating soil thermal and wetness information into surface energy balance models. The aim of this work is to determine whether enhancing the...journal article 2019

Steele-Dunne, S.C. (author), Hahn, Sebastian (author), Wagner, Wolfgang (author), Vreugdenhil, M. (author)The TU Wien Soil Moisture Retrieval (TUW SMR) approach is used to produce several operational soil moisture products from the Advanced Scatterometer (ASCAT) on the Metop series of satellites as part of the EUMETSAT Satellite Application Facility on Support to Operational Hydrology and Water Management (H SAF). The incidence angle dependence...journal article 2021

Bennour, Ali (author), Jia, Li (author), Menenti, M. (author), Zheng, Chaolei (author), Zeng, Yelong (author), Barnieh, Beatrice Asenso (author), Jiang, Min (author)Study region: Senegal river (SRB), Niger river (NRB), and Lake Chad basins (LCB). Study focus: We investigated the impacts of land use/land cover change (LULC) and climate variability on the water balance components from 1990 to 2020. We applied the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) coupled with remote sensing retrievals of actual...journal article 2023
