Overview of Soil Moisture Monitoring
Soil moisture is defined as the amount of water in soil.
Soil moisture is an important factor for agricultural drought.
Soil moisture is one of important climate change indicators.
Soil moisture is a critical parameter for IPCC and GFCS.

Overview of Soil Moisture Measurements
In-situ ground measurements Point measurements
Restricted to discrete observation
SM measurement standards and guidelines
Satellite remote sensing Provide large scale and long term observation
Poor spatial resolution for Microwave
Lack of physical basis for Optical/IR
Vegetation cover makes it complex

The vegetation T is always close to air T, the spatial variation in surface T is small (except for emission from underlying bare soil) over a full vegetation. The surface T over bare soil varies depending on θ: from warm to cold when θ increases.

The successful application of ‘Universal Triangle’ relation reinforced this theory;
A good agreement between ground observed and MODIS derived soil moisture suggested soil moisture retrieval by combining in-situ and MODIS measurements is feasible;
The soil moisture map at 1 km resolution provides more regional soil moisture details and spatial pattern.

Higher NMDI, drier soil. θ <0.1,NMDI = 0.7~1; θ=0.2, NMDI≈ 0.6; θ >0.5, NMDI<0.4. Suggest that soil moisture conditions can be monitored by NMDI with different thresholds.

NMDI is well suited to estimate both soil and vegetation drought.
NMDI demonstrated high performance and discrimination power for fire detection.
The new index will provide a new foundation for monitoring soil moisture for the next generation of MODIS sensor –VIIRS.

Summary and Discussion
Soil moisture estimation by combining the strengths of SMOS, SMAP, MODIS and ground measurements to achieve higher accuracy and spatial resolution.
System (SM-RMAS) is under development. We need to work with our international partners to collect more ground measurements.
We have tested our approach with SMOS and MODIS & in-situ measurements applying it in multiple regions, including China, South Africa, Brazil, and Mozambique.
There is a urgent need to develop standards and guidelines for global soil moisture measurements.
