The Barcelona Expert Center expertise covers a wide variety of remote sensing fields, but the main focus of the research is on the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) data processing and its ocean, land, and ice applications. This book contains 14 scientific papers addressing topics that range from the description of the new data processing algorithms that are implemented in the last version of the operational SMOS Level 1 processor, to scientific applications derived from SMOS: results on the sea surface salinity assimilation in coastal models; synergies of the sea surface salinity with temperature and chlorophyll, and their impact on the better retrieval of ocean surface currents; quality assessment of SMOS derived sea ice thickness; sea surface salinity; and soil moisture products, among others. Moreover, one of the papers verifies the potential of the future CIMR mission within the CMEMS SSS operational production after the SMOS era.GeographybicsscResearch & information: generalbicssc4D-VarABACUS glidersAlgerian BasinaltimetryAngola BasinArcticBECBEC SMOS productscalibrationCIMRclimatologyCongo River plumecopernicus marine servicecryospheredata assimilationdata fusiondata mergingerror correctionfaraday rotation angle (FRA)image reconstructioninterferometric radiometryInterferometryinternal tidesL-bandL-band radiometrymediterranean seaMediterranean Seamicrowave remote sensingMODISmoisture patternsmoisture variabilityocean colorocean salinity (SMOS)oceanographyphysical oceanographyprocessingradiometryREMEDHUSremote sensingreprocessingretrieval model validationROMSroot zonesatellite altimetrysatellite observationssatellite salinitysea ice thicknesssea surface salinitysea surface temperaturesensor calibrationsignal decompositionsingularity analysisSMAPSMOSsoil moistureSoil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP)Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS)Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) missionspatial disaggregationsurface currentssurface quasi-geostrophic equationstemporal dynamicstidal currentstrendsupward looking sonarvertical total electron content (VTEC)GeographyResearch & information: generalMartínez Justinoedt1311326Gonzalez VeronicaedtGabarro CarolinaedtOlmedo EstrellaedtMartínez JustinoothGonzalez VeronicaothGabarro CarolinaothOlmedo EstrellaothBOOK9910557298703321Ten Years of Remote Sensing at Barcelona Expert Center3030248UNINA
