Evaluating global trends (1988-2010) in harmonized multi-satellite surface soil moisture
Global trends in a new multi-satellite surface soil moisture dataset were analyzed for the period 1988-2010. 27% of the area covered by the dataset showed significant trends (p = 0.05). Of these, 73% were negative and 27% positive. Subtle drying trends were found in the Southern US, central South Am...
