Quantifying the potential of using Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) soil moisture variability to predict subsurface water dynamics by A. K. Nayak, X. Xu, X. Xu, S. K. Frey, S. K. Frey, O. Khader, O. Khader, A. R. Erler, D. R. Lapen, H. A. J. Russell, E. A. Sudicky, E. A. Sudicky

“…The quantified optimal characteristic time length <span class="inline-formula"><i>T</i>_opt</span> for SWI estimation (by matching the variations in SMAP-derived SWI and modeled root zone SM) is comparable to <span class="inline-formula"><i>T</i>_opt</span> obtained in other agricultural regions around the world. This work demonstrates SMAP SM measurements as a potentially useful aid when predicting root zone SM and GW dynamics and validating fully integrated hydrologic models across different spatial scales. …”
