Results are presented of modeling water and heat balance components utilizing satellite-based fields of land surface temperatures and vegetation parameters for three embedded one into another areas of the Central Black Earth zone of European Russia with square 23500, 52800 and 227300 km2 for vegetation seasons 2003-2009. Satellite-based estimates of land surface characteristics have been derived from AVHRR/NOAA, MODIS/EOS Terra and Aqua, and SEVIRI/Meteosat-9 data using refined technologies. The techniques are represented for assimilation of these remote sensing products in the model of vertical water and heat transfer in the "soil-vegetation-atmosphere" system (SVAT) intended for calculating vertical water and heat fluxes, soil water and heat content, land surface and soil temperatures.
Keywords: water and heat balance components, model of water and heat transfer, satellite data thematic processing, spatial variability of land surface characteristics
