A deep learning approach for SMAP soil moisture downscaling informed by thermal inertia theory

Deep learning (DL) based methods have recently made remarkable progress in remote sensing (RS) soil moisture (SM) retrieval applications. However, their purely “black box” algorithms suffer from a lack of interpretability, whereas methods based solely on physical mechanisms often underperform in com...
