    The Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) has emerged as a valuable tool for terrestrial remote sensing applications, particularly in the context of land Surface Soil Moisture (SSM) detection. The high-resolution capability of GNSS-R complements traditional satellite-based active and passive missions but the product reliability and robustness evaluations are still absent due to an efficient retrieval algorithms. In this study, we addressed this lack of reliability and robustness by comprehensively assessing the SSM retrievals from CYclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) data with the satellite-based microwave radiometry products Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) and Modern Era Retrospective-Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA2) over Punjab in various seasons. ERA5 model-based products for the same period in 2022–2023. Our study reveals a distinct seasonal average SSM variation during autumn (0.20 cm<sup>3</sup>/cm<sup>3</sup>), followed by winter values of 0.19 cm<sup>3</sup>/cm<sup>3</sup>. Subsequently, the minimum SSM values are observed during summer (0.11 cm<sup>3</sup>/cm<sup>3</sup>) and an increase in spring to 0.13 cm<sup>3</sup>/cm<sup>3</sup>. Moreover, a strong positive linear relationship (0.74) is evident between SMAP and ERRA 5 in contrast to a low correlation (0.03) between MERRA2 and both the SMAP and ERRA 5. Additionally, SMAP demonstrates moderate and weak correlation of 0.53 and 0.03 with CYGNSS and MERRA2, respectively. The CYGNSS exhibits moderate correlations (0.46) with ERRA 5 and SMAP and a weaker association (0.14) with MERRA2. Our analysis concluded that MERRA2 (Bias = 0.20 cm³/cm³, ubRMSD = 0.25 cm³/cm³, RMSE = 0.12 cm³/cm³, SD = 0.13 cm³/cm³, MAE = 0.04 cm³/cm, R = 0.03) SSM product performs poorly as compared to SMAP (Bias = 0.03 cm³/cm³, ubRMSD = 0.03 cm³/cm³, RMSE = 0.04 cm³/cm³, SD = 0.05 cm³/cm³, MAE = 0.03 cm³/cm³, R = 0.74) and CYGNSS (Bias = -0.01 cm³/cm³, ubRMSD = 0.09 cm³/cm³, RMSE = 0.07 cm³/cm³, SD = 0.06 cm³/cm³, MAE = 0.05 cm³/cm³, R = 0.46) products. This study provides accurate future predictions of SSM with delineating the limitations of GNSS-R in comparison to remote sensing and model values. The findings from this study have also significant implications for the advancement of GNSS-R applications in agriculture and crop management.

    Earth observations from remotely sensed data have a substantial impact on natural hazard surveillance, specifically for earthquakes. The rapid emergence of diverse earthquake precursors has led to the exploration of different methodologies and datasets from various satellites to understand and address the complex nature of earthquake precursors. This study presents a novel technique to detect the ionospheric and atmospheric precursors using machine learning (ML). We examine the multiple precursors of different spatiotemporal nature from satellites in the ionosphere and atmosphere related to the Turkey earthquake on 6 February 2023 (Mw 7.8), in the form of total electron content (TEC), land surface temperature (LST), sea surface temperature (SST), air pressure (AP), relative humidity (RH), outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), and air temperature (AT). As a confutation analysis, we also statistically observe datasets of atmospheric parameters for the years 2021 and 2022 in the same epicentral region and time period as the 2023 Turkey earthquake. Moreover, the aim of this study is to find a synchronized and co-located window of possible earthquake anomalies by providing more evidence with standard deviation (STDEV) and nonlinear autoregressive network with exogenous inputs (NARX) models. It is noteworthy that both the statistical and ML methods demonstrate abnormal fluctuations as precursors within 6 to 7 days before the impending earthquake over the epicenter. Furthermore, the geomagnetic anomalies in the ionosphere are detected on the ninth day after the earthquake (Kp > 4; Dst < −70 nT; ap > 50 nT). This study indicates the relevance of using multiple earthquake precursors in a synchronized window from ML methods to support the lithosphere–atmosphere–ionosphere coupling (LAIC) phenomenon.
