Monitoring soil wetness variations by means of satellite passive microwave observations: the HYDROPTIMET study cases
Soil moisture is an important component of the hydrological cycle. In the framework of modern flood warning systems, the knowledge of soil moisture is crucial, due to the influence on the soil response in terms of infiltration-runoff. Precipitation-runoff processes, in fact, are related to catchment...
