Sentinel-1 Backscatter and Interferometric Coherence for Soil Moisture Retrieval in Winter Wheat Fields Within a Semiarid South-Mediterranean Climate: Machine Learning Versus Semiempirical Models

This work aims to assess the effectiveness of machine learning (ML) algorithms and semiempirical models for surface soil moisture (SSM) retrieval by exploring the Sentinel-1 backscatter and interferometric coherence data. First, three commonly used categories of ML algorithms are evaluated using dat...
