The objective of this study is to illustrate a pre-operational near surface soil moisture (SSM) product derived, at 1 km resolution, from Sentinel-1 data over the Mediterranean basin. The high resolution is crucial in this area characterized by small to medium size watersheds (e.g. from 500 km2 to 5000 km2). Indeed, it may allow to resolve SSM patterns related to the landscape characteristics of the watersheds and link them to their hydrologic response.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to illustrate a pre-operational near surface soil moisture (SSM) product derived, at 1 km resolution, from Sentinel-1 data over the Mediterranean basin. The high resolution is crucial in this area characterized by small to medium size watersheds (e.g. from 500 km2 to 5000 km2). Indeed, it may allow to resolve SSM patterns related to the landscape characteristics of the watersheds and link them to their hydrologic response.
