  abstract = {{S}atellite remote sensing technology has been widely used to estimate surface soil moisture. {N}umerous efforts have been devoted to develop global soil moisture products. {H}owever, these global soil moisture products, normally retrieved from microwave remote sensing data, are typically not suitable for regional hydrological and agricultural applications such as irrigation management and flood predictions, due to their coarse spatial resolution. {T}herefore, various downscaling methods have been proposed to improve the coarse resolution soil moisture products. {T}he purpose of this paper is to review existing methods for downscaling satellite remotely sensed soil moisture. {T}hese methods are assessed and compared in terms of their advantages and limitations. {T}his review also provides the accuracy level of these methods based on published validation studies. {I}n the final part, problems and future trends associated with these methods are analyzed.},
