  abstract = {{I}n this letter, a monofrequent dielectric model for moist soils taking into account dependences on the temperature and texture is proposed, in the case of an electromagnetic frequency equal to 1.4 {GH}z. {T}he proposed model is deduced from a more general model proposed by {M}ironov and {F}omin (2009) that provides estimations of the complex relative permittivity ({CRP}) of moist soils as a function of frequency, temperature, moisture, and texture of soils. {T}he latter employs the physical laws of {D}ebye and {C}lausius-{M}ossotti and the law of ion conductance to calculate the {CRP} of water solutions in the soil. {T}he parameters of the respective physical laws were determined by using the {CRP}s of moist soils measured by {C}urtis et al. (1995) for a wide ensemble of soil textures (clay content from 0% to 76%), moistures (from drying at 105 degrees {C} to nearly saturation), temperatures (10 degrees {C}-40 degrees {C}), and frequencies (0.3-26.5 {GH}z). {T}his model has standard deviations of calculated {CRP}s from the measured values equal to 1.9 and 1.3 for the real and imaginary parts of {CRP}, respectively. {I}n the model proposed in this letter, the respective standard deviations were decreased to the values of 0.87 and 0.26. {I}n addition, the equations to calculate the complex dielectric permittivity as a function of moisture, temperature, and texture were represented in a simple form of the refractive mixing dielectric model, which is commonly used in the algorithms of radiometric and radar remote sensing to retrieve moisture in the soil.},
