Session: Remote Sensing of Land Surface and Vadose Zone Hydrologic Processes Oral (ASA, CSSA and SSSA International Annual Meetings (2016))

204 Remote Sensing of Land Surface and Vadose Zone Hydrologic Processes Oral

Oral Session

SSSA Division: Soil Physics and Hydrology

Potential applications of remote sensing (RS) to soil physics and hydrology are quickly becoming tangible with the recent launch of 5 NASA earth science missions over the past few years in conjunction with evolution of airborne, field-based and laboratory RS methods. Various algorithms and techniques have been developed in recent years for estimating/monitoring soil static properties (e.g. hydraulic properties), state variables (e.g. water content) and fluxes (e.g. evaporation/evapotranspiration). This session will highlight recent developments/advances in RS algorithms and techniques which potentially benefit soil physics and hydrology community.
