The SM2RAIN code for estimating rainfall from soil moisture data was made freely available here. If you do not believe it is possible, try yourself! You can find the updates on the "Tutorial". We are continuously working for improving the method. So, for a more updated version of the code, please see_ http_//hydrology.irpi.cnr.it/repository/public/code/sm2rain/view The code is written in the MATLAB® programming language and is fully commented. The description of the algorithm and of its performance can be found in Brocca et al. (2013): Brocca, L., Melone, F., Moramarco, T., Wagner, W. (2013). A new method for rainfall estimation through soil moisture observations.
