The Effect of Row Structure on Soil Moisture Retrieval Accuracy from Passive Microwave Data

Row structure causes the anisotropy of microwave brightness temperature (TB) of soil surface, and it also can affect soil moisture retrieval accuracy when its influence is ignored in the inversion model. To study the effect of typical row structure on the retrieved soil moisture and evaluate if ther...
