Irrigation Quantification Through Backscatter Data Assimilation With a Buddy Check Approach

Abstract Irrigation is an important component of the terrestrial water cycle, but it is often poorly accounted for in models. Recent studies have attempted to integrate satellite data and land surface models via data assimilation (DA) to (a) detect and quantify irrigation, and (b) better estimate th...
