Satellites (e.g., Soil Moisture Active Passive [SMAP] and Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity [SMOS]) using passive microwave techniques, in particular at L-band frequency, have shown good promise for global mapping of near-surface (0–5-cm) soil moisture at a spatial resolution of 25 to 40 km and temporal resolution of 2 to 3 d. C- and X-band soil moisture records date back to 1978, making available an invaluable data set for long-term climate research. Near-surface soil moisture is further extended to the root zone (top 1 m) using process-based models and data assimilation schemes. Validation of remotely sensed soil moisture products has been ongoing using core monitoring sites, sparse monitoring networks, intensive field campaigns, as well as multi-satellite comparison studies. To transfer empirical observations across space and time scales and to develop improved retrieval algorithms at various resolutions, several efforts are underway to associate soil moisture variability dynamics with land surface attributes in various energy- and water-rich environments. We describe the most recent scientific and technological advances in soil moisture remote sensing. We anticipate that remotely sensed soil moisture will find many applications in vadose zone hydrology in the coming decades. 000827137 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255$$a255 - Terrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction (POF3-255)$$cPOF3-255$$fPOF III$$x0 000827137 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000827137 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aCosh, Michael H.$$b1 000827137 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aLakshmi, Venkat$$b2 000827137 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)129506$$aMontzka, Carsten$$b3 000827137 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2088189-7$$a10.2136/vzj2016.10.0105$$gVol. 16, no. 1, p. 0 -$$n1$$p $$tVadose zone journal$$v16$$x1539-1663$$y2017 000827137 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/827137/files/vzj-16-1-vzj2016.10.0105.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000827137 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/827137/files/vzj-16-1-vzj2016.10.0105.gif?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yOpenAccess 000827137 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/827137/files/vzj-16-1-vzj2016.10.0105.jpg?subformat=icon-1440$$xicon-1440$$yOpenAccess 000827137 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/827137/files/vzj-16-1-vzj2016.10.0105.jpg?subformat=icon-180$$xicon-180$$yOpenAccess 000827137 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/827137/files/vzj-16-1-vzj2016.10.0105.jpg?subformat=icon-640$$xicon-640$$yOpenAccess 000827137 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/827137/files/vzj-16-1-vzj2016.10.0105.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000827137 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:827137$$pdnbdelivery$$pVDB$$pVDB:Earth_Environment$$pdriver$$popen_access$$popenaire 000827137 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)129506$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b3$$kFZJ 000827137 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-255$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-250$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-200$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bErde und Umwelt$$lTerrestrische Umwelt$$vTerrestrial Systems: From Observation to Prediction$$x0 000827137 9141_ $$y2017 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000827137 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBYNCND4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bVADOSE ZONE J : 2015 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9900$$2StatID$$aIF < 5 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1060$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Agriculture, Biology and Environmental Sciences 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000827137 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000827137 920__ $$lyes 000827137 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118$$kIBG-3$$lAgrosphäre$$x0 000827137 980__ $$ajournal 000827137 980__ $$aVDB 000827137 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000827137 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IBG-3-20101118 000827137 9801_ $$aFullTexts
