abstract = "Soil moisture-SM influences the redistribution of radiant energy,
runoff generation, infiltration, and therefore, recharge. Knowing
its spatial distribution is strategic for agricultural activities.
In situ measurements of SM are time consuming, providing only
point information. Synthetic aperture radar SAR images bring the
possibility of estimating SM over extensive areas, with adequate
spatial and temporal coverage. In this work, preliminary maps of
SM were obtained by applying an Artificial Network Algorithm (ANN)
in order to invert the values of the Advance Integral Equation
Model (AIEM). Five X band SAR images from the satellite
COSMO-SKYMED were processed and calibrated. Soil moisture was
measured in situ by means of a TDR probe, samples were taken from
the field for gravimetric water content determination. Days for
field campaigns were performed as close as possible to the image
days. The comparison between SM and backscattering values shows
dispersion, in particular under very humid conditions. However,
the multitemporal analysis showed increasing backscaterring values
as SM increases, as expected. The application of the ANN algorithm
showed consistency between field data and model simulated values.
This work was developed in the State of Santa Fe, Argentina.",
