Remote Sensing for Soil Moisture Short Course

[Ana Andreu]

Hi all, 

 

Registration is open for the Short Course Remote Sensing for Soil Moisture: data sources, processing, and assimilation for hydrological modeling (registration open until 22nd of September). 

 

This short course aims to present and go into detail about the state of the art of mapping soil moisture from a hydrological and agronomic perspective, covering aspects related to: 

1. data collection from both in situ and remote sensing sources;
2. data uncertainty, quantifying and integrating it on hydrological/agronomic modeling;
3. linking scales from the plot to the global; 
4. showing recent experiences by the international experts involved in the course

The course is organized within the frame of the ceiA3 (Campus of International Agrifood Excellence) Training Courses 2023 Programme. It will take place at the University of Cordoba (Spain) on 4-8 October 2023.

Hi all, 

 

Registration is open for the Short Course INTEGRATING SOIL MOISTURE MEASUREMENT, MODELING, AND REMOTE SENSING FOR HYDROLOGICAL AND AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS – UCO (until the 22nd of September). 

 

This short course aims to present and go into detail about the state of the art of mapping soil moisture from a hydrological and agronomic perspective, covering aspects related to:

1. Present and use the main techniques for measuring soil moisture (field, remote sensing) at different spatiotemporal scales (plot, regional, global). 
2. Describe and apply available soil moisture products and soil moisture calculation models for hydrological/agricultural purposes at various spatiotemporal scales. 
3. Quantify and incorporate the uncertainty associated with both observations and modeling. 
4. Implement this information through downscaling and/or assimilation techniques in distributed hydrological/agricultural models that allow the influence of soil moisture to be analyzed in cultivated areas at different spatiotemporal scales.
5. To present current experiences of scientific knowledge transfer to technical users in the agricultural sector

It is an on-site course (costs 20 euros), and travel, accommodation, and other expenses are NOT covered.

The course is organized within the frame of the ceiA3 (Campus of International Agrifood Excellence) Training Courses 2025 Programme. It will take place at the University of Cordoba (Spain) on 6-10 October 2025.
