Abstract
Between 2018 and 2022, INRAE Bordeaux (IB) has developed a series of soil moisture (SM) and L-band Vegetation Optical depth (L-VOD) retrieval products from SMOS and SMAP, which are currently the only two operational L-band passive microwave satellite missions. These IB products rely on a two-parameter inversion of the L-MEB model (L-band Microwave Emission of the Biosphere) which requires little ancillary information. The products are found to be accurate, and very well-suited for application in hydrology, agriculture, climate and vegetation monitoring. In this communication, we present an overview of the development, evaluation and new applications of these IB SM or L-VOD products.
