Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This study developed a radiative transform equation (RTM) for soil moisture observation by satellite based microwave radiometers based on the experiments by using a ground-based microwave radiometer. The RTM was introduced for development of a land data assimilation system (LDAS) coupled with a land surface model for development a land data assimilation system and an optimization scheme to search for optimal values of soil moisture through minimizing the difference between modeled and observed brightness temperature. The RTM and LDAS were validated by using the in-situ and satellite synthesized observation data.
