Developing a drought-monitoring index for the contiguous US using SMAP by S. Sadri, E. F. Wood, M. Pan

“…SMAP soil moisture data from April 2015 to December 2017 at both near-surface (5&thinsp;cm) SPL3SMP, or Level 3, at <span class="inline-formula">∼36</span>&thinsp;km resolution, and root-zone SPL4SMAU, or Level 4, at <span class="inline-formula">∼9</span>&thinsp;km resolution, were fitted to beta distributions and were used to construct probability distributions for warm (May–October) and cold (November–April) seasons. To assess the data adequacy and have confidence in using short-term SMAP for a drought index estimate, we analyzed individual grids by defining two filters and a combination of them, which could separate the 5815 grids covering CONUS into passed and failed grids. …”
