- Abstract
- ESA's Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission has been launched in November 2009 and delivers now brightness temperature and soil moisture products over terrestrial areas on a regular three day basis. In 2010, several aiborne campaigns were conducted to validate the SMOS products with microwave emission radiometers at L-band (1.4 GHz). In this paper, we present the activities performed in the Rur and Erft catchment, which is situated in the very west of Germany close to the border to Belgium and The Netherlands.
