On the Role of Land Surface Temperature as Proxy of Soil Moisture Status for Drought Monitoring in Europe

Remotely sensed Land Surface Temperature (LST) represents a valuable source of data for a simple modelling of the dynamic of soil moisture (SM) over large areas. In this paper we evaluated the capability of LST monthly anomalies, derived from the MOD11C3 standard product, to capture the SM dynamic a...
