Abstract
In this study, temporal variations of the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer E (AMSR-E) soil moisture products were evaluated using ground based measurements from the Haenam flux monitoring network site for two years (2004 and 2006). Even if there were major comparison issues including spatial resolutions, AMSR-E soil moisture production showed a great potential to replicate temporal variability patterns with ground based measurements. Additional intensive validation efforts should be conducted at a variety of field conditions including vegetation type for better utilization of remotely sensed soil moisture and understanding of the land surface-atmosphere interactions in the view of hydrometeorology.
