Synergies betwwen Smos and sentinel-3
Résumé
After almost 9 years in orbit L-band satellite radiometry has demonstrated its impacts and values for a wide range of science and applications. However, so as to cover specific applications use of other sensors can prove very valuable. In particular use of altimetry, optical and thermal infrared measurements can offer new avenues. Many of them were tested with existing satellites at the time of SMOS launch, but with the Copernicus' Sentinel-3 mission's data now available, new applications and operational products can be envisioned.
