Resumen:
Soil moisture retrieval from SAR images is always a ected by speckle noise, model errors and uncertainties associated to soil parameters, which impact negatively on the accuracy of soil moisture estimates. A Bayesian approach has been proposed to deal with these issues. As a natural advantage of the Bayesian approach, prior information about soil condition can be easily included. Based on simulations, the e ect of prior information has been analyzed. It follows from simulations using the Oh's model that the soil moisture estimator is very sensitivity to the roughness prior.
