Full textSoil moisture is a key state variable of the Earth's system; it is the main variable that links the Earth's water, energy and carbon cycles. Accurate observations of the Earth's changing soil moisture are needed to achieve sustainable land and water management, and to enhance weather and climate forecasting skill, flood prediction and drought monitoring. This Thesis focuses on measuring the Earth's surface soil moisture from space at global and regional scales. Theoretical and experimental studies have proven that L-band passive remote sensing is optimal for soil moisture sensing due to its all-weather capabilities and the direct relationship between soil emissivity and soil water content under most vegetation covers. However, achieving a temporal and spatial resolution that could satisfy land applications has been a challenge to passive microwave remote sensing in the last decades, since real aperture radiometers would need a large rotating antenna, which is difficult to implement on a spacecraft. Currently, there are three main approaches to solving this problem: (i) the use of an L-band synthetic aperture radiometer, which is the solution implemented in the ESA Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission, launched in November 2009; (ii) the use of a large lightweight radiometer and a radar operating at L-band, which is the solution adopted by the NASA Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission, scheduled for launch in 2014; (iii) the development of pixel disaggregation techniques that could enhance the spatial resolution of the radiometric observations. The first part of this work focuses on the analysis of the SMOS soil moisture inversion algorithm, which is crucial to retrieve accurate soil moisture estimations from SMOS measurements. Different retrieval configurations have been examined using simulated SMOS data, considering (i) the option of adding a priori information from parameters dominating the land emission at L-band —soil moisture, roughness, and temperature, vegetation albedo and opacity— with different associated uncertainties and (ii) the use of vertical and horizontal polarizations separately, or the first Stokes parameter. An optimal retrieval configuration for SMOS is suggested. The spatial resolution of SMOS and SMAP radiometers (~ 40-50 km) is adequate for global applications, but is a limiting factor to its application in regional studies, where a resolution of 1-10 km is needed. The second part of this Thesis contains three novel downscaling approaches for SMOS and SMAP: • A deconvolution scheme for the improvement of the spatial resolution of SMOS observations has been developed, and results of its application to simulated SMOS data and airborne field experimental data show that it is feasible to improve the product of the spatial resolution and the radiometric sensitivity of the observations by 49% over land pixels and by 30% over sea pixels. • A downscaling algorithm for improving the spatial resolution of SMOS-derived soil moisture estimates using higher resolution MODIS visible/infrared data is presented. Results of its application to some of the first SMOS images show the spatial variability of SMOS-derived soil moisture observations is effectively captured at the spatial resolutions of 32, 16, and 8 km. • A change detection approach for combining SMAP radar and radiometer observations into a 10 km soil moisture product has been developed and validated using SMAP-like observations and airborne field experimental data. This work has been developed within the preparatory activities of SMOS and SMAP, the two first-ever satellites dedicated to monitoring the temporal and spatial variation on the Earth's soil moisture. The results presented contribute to get the most out of these vital observations, that will further our understanding of the Earth's water cycle, and will lead to a better water resources management.

Full textNeutrino interactions beyond the standard model of particle physics are an open field both from theoretical and experimental point of view. In this thesis we present how non- standard neutrino properties can be constrained using cosmological observations and in particular cosmic microwave background data like those of the Planck satellites. We will consider the possibility that neutrinos possess secret scalar or pseudoscalar interactions mediated by the Nambu-Goldstone boson of a still unknown spontaneously broken global U (1) symmetry, as in, e.g., Majoron models or that secret contact interactions among eV sterile neutrinos, mediated by a massive gauge boson X (with M X M W ) exist. We will present constraints on the interaction strength and on the neutrino mass allowed by cosmological data alone or in combination with astrophysical observations and we will discuss the feasibility of the considered models.
