Soil moisture for Lake Ohrid

H-SAF H109 Metop ASCAT The soil moisture product represents the water content in the upper soil layer (< 2 cm) in relative units between totally dry conditions (0%) and total water capacity (100%). The time series are available on a discrete global grid (DGG) with a spatial resolution of 25 km (grid spacing 12.5 km). The temporal sampling rate is irregular (every 1-2 days) and depends on the latitude. Each surface soil moisture estimate has an associated noise value, indicating the uncertainty. The soil moisture product has not been pre-filtered, meaning that a masking of invalid measurements (e.g. frozen ground, snow cover) by the user is highly recommended before further processing.
