Nice article (in French) on modeling the atmosphere in Altamira cave, using satellite data of soil moisture and T🛰️ #chaostheory ESA France CNES The equations obtained allow to go back in time, but also to make future simulations (& monitor paintings deterioration from CO2 levels)

#newinstrument Our proposal to CNES for an all-in-1 microwave radiometer with synthetic aperture has been accepted🎊 Interferometry, #beamforming, antenna array geometries or heterogeneous pixels... lots to explore with #FANTASIOR! ➡️labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/prop…

#CryoSat has been in orbit since 2010, but a new preprint shows its long term records improve Arctic sea ice thickness data going back to 1992! It's thanks to #CryoSat and SMOS satellite data & correcting historic models with present observations 💅 👉egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/2024…

🛰️❄️Towards high latitude areas (1/2) : Exploring new frontiers with passive microwave data. #snowdensity #soilpermittivity ➡️ Recent paper from the Finnish Meteorological Institute, comparing in-situ and SMOS data over Sodankylä (Finland) : labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/towa…

Excited to share our latest publication on estimating uncertainties in satellite-derived #SoilMoisture at a global scale using International Soil Moisture Network data, led by our colleagues at Centre d'Etudes Spatiales de la Biosphère : doi.org/10.1016/j.srs.… ESA Earth Observation SMOS satellite CLIMERS

🛰️ 🇨🇳 SMOS satellite data reveal that 170 Million ton of C per year were removed from the atmosphere and stored in biomass in China from 2015 to 2021 Please check our new publication ⤵️ sciencedirect.com/science/articl… by Hongqian Fang JP WIGNERON

🛰️Towards high latitudes (2/2) where soil moisture data could provide info on the #permafrost carbon cycle, improve climate predictions... but there is still a long way to go ! Focus on open water areas and unfrozen organic soils specific to these regions: labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/towa…

📢New #PhD Position opening ! In the SMOS satellite team at Centre d'Etudes Spatiales de la Biosphère in #Toulouse Monitoring of forest fuels (biomass, water content) in the boreal forest by multi-source satellite remote sensing 👉More details : labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/phd-…

Contribution by Centre d'Etudes Spatiales de la Biosphère to American Meteorological Society's 34th State of the Climate, whose report states that : “the increase in global soil moisture observed over the previous 4 years reversed in 2023, and the soil moisture values declined back to 2020 levels" labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/stat…

New study combines SMOS satellite passive microwave data (more precisely : vegetation optical depth) and optical observations to derive annual above-ground carbon variations Much more info👇

Next week we will be in #RAQRS24 Symposium in Torrent (#Valencia), presenting our research on: 💧#SoilMoisture indexes to predict #drought ❄️Estimations of water equivalent from snow 🧊SMOS satellite sea ice thickness retrieval See you there! 🔗ipl.uv.es/raqrs/

❄️A new study has been carried out by isardSAT with the Institut de Ciències del Mar ICM-CSIC. Its compares machine learning algorithms with moorings' data and shows that such approaches could improve SMOS #seaice thickness retrievals. More 👉 labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/a-ma…

The abstract submission deadline for the SMOS Science Conference & 15th Year Anniversary is fast approaching !! 👉 For those interested, don't forget : smos15years.org/abstractsubmis…

In #RAQRSVII we presented a methodology based on #MachineLearning that provides high accuracy & improved sea ice thickness estimates from SMOS satellite data. 🛰️🧊 It has been developed together with ICM-CSIC & validated against in situ data from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI).

For those near #Toulouse this Saturday 5 October !! The Observatoire MP opens its doors for the Fête de la Science #FDS2024 (French-speaking event) 👉 The program is available here : news.obs-mip.fr/fete-de-la-sci… The SMOS team will be waiting for you from 14:00 🛰️🖌️

Many thanks to everyone who helped make the Fête de la Science a success! 🙌 #FDS2024 The SMOS team was present at both the Cité de l'espace and the Observatoire MP in Toulouse on 4 and 5 October. Congrats to all the artists who participated in the SMOS Pictionary : labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/smos…

🌿💧Soil moisture in the #rootzone (ie available for plants) from SMOS surface soil moisture is available for download since 2022 A new article evaluates this product & shows its potential for capturing #irrigation signals, as in the Telangana region : labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/can-…

Soil moisture anomalies, biomass changes, drought index, hurricane wind speeds: over the course of its long mission, European Space Agency's SMOS satellite has delivered data on tons of different variables. SMOS was launched on 2 November 2009: happy launch day!

🛰️❄️SMOS improved spatial resolution of snow melt monitoring (~30 km) unveils a large increase in the melt signal detected on the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets Access to @IGE_Grenoble new product and to the recently published article : 👉labo.obs-mip.fr/smos-blog/a-sm… National Snow and Ice Data Center
