Soil Hydraulic Parameters and Surface Soil Moisture of a Tilled Bare Soil Plot Inversely Derived from L‐Band Brightness Temperatures

We coupled a radiative transfer model and a soil hydrologic model (HYDRUS 1D) with an optimization routine to derive soil hydraulic parameters, surface roughness, and soil moisture of a tilled bare soil plot using measured brightness temperatures at 1.4 GHz (L‐band), rainfall, and potential soil eva...
