TL;DR: The OZCAR-RI project as discussed by the authors is a network of instrumented sites, bringing together 21 pre-existing research observatories monitoring different compartments of the zone situated between “the rock and the sky,” the Earth's skin or critical zone (CZ), over the long term.

Simulation of Northern Eurasian Local Snow Depth, Mass, and Density Using a Detailed Snowpack Model and Meteorological Reanalyses
Eric Brun,Vincent Vionnet,Aaron Boone,Bertrand Decharme,Yannick Peings,Rémi Valette,Fatima Karbou,Samuel Morin +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Crocus snowpack model within the Interactions between Soil-Biosphere-Atmosphere (ISBA) land surface model was run over northern Eurasia from 1979 to 1993, using forcing data extracted from hydrometeorological datasets and meteorological reanalyses.

An Evaluation of Microwave Land Surface Emissivities Over the Continental United States to Benefit GPM-Era Precipitation Algorithms
Ralph Ferraro,Christa D. Peters-Lidard,C. Hernandez,F. J. Turk,Filipe Aires,C. Prigent,Xin Lin,Sid-Ahmed Boukabara,Fumie A. Furuzawa,Kaushik Gopalan,Kenneth W. Harrison,Fatima Karbou,Li Li,Chuntao Liu,Hirohiko Masunaga,L. Moy,Sarah Ringerud,Gail Skofronick-Jackson,Yudong Tian,Nai-Yu Wang +19 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that while the emissivity structure can be fairly well characterized for certain surface types, there are other more complex surfaces where the underlying variability is more than can be captured with the PMW channels and suggest that physical retrievals are feasible over vegetated land during the warm seasons.

Microwave land emissivity and skin temperature for AMSU-A and -B assimilation over land
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared three land-surface schemes using the Meteo-France four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) assimilation system and compared their results with those of the operational surface scheme (which uses emissivity models).
