Title:Main Title: Near-surface soil moisture estimates from ALOS PALSAR fine mode data
Description:Abstract: Numerous studies have shown that spaceborne microwave remote sensing has the potential to provide spatially distributed patterns of near-surface soil water contents. The Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) aboard the Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) has a higher spatial resolution (~10 m) than SAR systems onboard ERS-2, RADARSAT-1, and ENVISAT (~30 m). Besides, the lower center frequency allows better penetration of the incident electromagnetic waves through vegetation and other surface types. We present results from our PALSAR sensitivity analysis and show first high resolution L-band Soil moisture products.
