Assessment of Surface Fractional Water Impacts on SMAP Soil Moisture Retrieval

Fractional water (FW) correction of satellite microwave brightness temperature (Tb) observations is a prerequisite for accurate soil moisture (SM) mapping over mixed land and water areas. Here, we evaluated the FW impacts on NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) L-band (1.4 GHz) SM retrievals usi...
