17 Conclusions o As part of the validation process, triple collocation compares 3 different datasets at a global scale : SMOS, AMSR-E/VUA and ECMWF o SMOS and AMSR-E/VUA have the same performance areas, but ECMWF and VUA give the best results o SMOS algorithm is still improving and it can be considered as a good start o Further work : apply triple collocation to other triplets (SMOS-NSIDC-ASCAT, etc…) and apply it with 2011 data
