Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the spatial and temporal resolutions that can represent land surface characteristics comprised of various land use using Landsat/AMSR2-based soil moisture data. We estimated the Landsat (30 m×30 m)-based soil moisture values using the soil moisture regression model. Then, the Landsat (30 m×30 m)-based soil moisture (reference values) were resampled to the relatively coarse resolutions from 1 km to 4 km, respectively. Comparing the reference values to the resampled soil moisture values, we confirmed that uncertainties were increased with the spatial resolutions of 2 km~4 km indicating that the spatial resolution of 1 km×1 km is required to represent the complicated land surface. Also, the AMSR2 soil moisture values have less uncertainties compared to SMAP data with the temporal resolution of 1~2 days. Thus, our findings can be useful for various areas such as agriculture, hydrology, forest, etc.
