10 2 When can soil moisture be estimated? If the attenuation of the soil emission is not very high Standing vegetation does not attenuate soil emission very strongly (usually a rain interception problem) The litter layer, if present, is not very dense & wet I.e.: The soil signature features are maintained (TB=f(θ,pol)) 11
