However, the seasonal performance of different SM products in Jiangsu is still unknown. To address this, this study aims to evaluate the applicability of four L-band microwave remotely sensed SM products, namely, the Soil Moisture Active Passive Single-Channel Algorithm at Vertical Polarization Level 3 (SMAP SCA-V L3, hereafter SMAP-L3), SMOS-SMAP-INRAE-BORDEAUX (SMOSMAP-IB), Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity in version IC (SMOS-IC), and SMAP-INRAE-BORDEAUX (SMAP-IB) in Jiangsu at the seasonal scale. In addition, the effects of dynamic environmental variables such as the leaf vegetation index (LAI), mean surface soil temperature (MSST), and mean surface soil wetness (MSSM) on the performance of the above products are investigated. The results indicate that all four SM products exhibit significant seasonal differences when evaluated against in situ observations between 2016 and 2022, with most products achieving their highest correlation (R) and unbiased root-mean-square difference (ubRMSD) scores during the autumn. Conversely, their performance significantly deteriorates in the summer, with ubRMSD values exceeding 0.06 m3\/m3. SMOS-IC generally achieves better R values across all seasons but has limited temporal availability, while SMAP-IB typically has the lowest ubRMSD values, even reaching 0.03 m3\/m3 during morning observation in the winter. Additionally, the sensitivity of different products\u2019 skill metrics to environmental factors varies across seasons. For ubRMSD, SMAP-L3 shows a general increase with LAI across all four seasons, while SMAP-IB exhibits a notable increase as the soil becomes wetter in the summer. Conversely, wet conditions notably reduce the R values during autumn for most products. These findings are expected to offer valuable insights for the appropriate selection of products and the enhancement of SM retrieval algorithms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16224235","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,14]],"date-time":"2024-11-14T04:15:49Z","timestamp":1731557749000},"page":"4235","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["An Assessment of the Seasonal Uncertainty of Microwave L-Band Satellite Soil Moisture Products in Jiangsu Province, China"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Chuanxiang","family":"Yi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Yancheng Meteorological Bureau, Yancheng 224005, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3831-4852","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaojun","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, National Engineering Research Center for Satellite Remote Sensing Applications, Aerospace Information Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"},{"name":"INRAE, UMR1391 ISPA, Universit\u00e9 de Bordeaux, F-33140 Villenave d\u2019Ornon, France"}]},{"given":"Zanpin","family":"Xing","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cryosphere Research Station on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, State Key Laboratory of Cryospheric Science, Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resource, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lanzhou 730000, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3167-7906","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiaozhou","family":"Xin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, National Engineering Research Center for Satellite Remote Sensing Applications, Aerospace Information Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"}]},{"given":"Yifang","family":"Ren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Climate Center, Nanjing 210019, China"}]},{"given":"Hongwei","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yancheng Meteorological Bureau, Yancheng 224005, China"}]},{"given":"Wenjun","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yancheng Meteorological Bureau, Yancheng 224005, China"}]},{"given":"Pei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Climate Center, Nanjing 210019, China"}]},{"given":"Tong","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Aviation Meteorology, Civil Aviation Flight University of China, Deyang 618307, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5345-3618","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jean-Pierre","family":"Wigneron","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"INRAE, UMR1391 ISPA, Universit\u00e9 de Bordeaux, F-33140 Villenave d\u2019Ornon, France"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1412","DOI":"10.1002\/ldr.2661","article-title":"Multispectral and Microwave Remote Sensing Models to Survey Soil Moisture and Salinity","volume":"28","author":"Periasamy","year":"2017","journal-title":"Land Degrad.
