The Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite makes coincident global measurements of
soil moisture using an L-band radar instrument and an L-band radiometer. It is crucial to
evaluate the errors in the newest L-band SMAP satellite-derived soil moisture products,
before they are routinely used in scientific research and applications. This study represents
the first evaluation of the SMAP radiometer soil moisture product over China. In this paper, a
preliminary evaluation was performed using sparse in situ measurements from 655 China …
