The paper examines the capabilities of Remote Sensing of Environment (RSE) to reconstruct soil meteorological conditions during magnetotelluric monitoring of the Kentor minipolygon test site (Issyk -Ata district, Chu region, Kyrgyzstan), where regular measurements have been carried out since 2014, and its relationship with intersessional variations in moisture and temperature. Using spectral analysis of RSE data, the characteristics of the surface layer were determined at one of the central points of magnetotelluric sounding. On the example of a calendar interval (March–October 2024), differences in meteorological conditions in spring and autumn were revealed: humid weather was observed in May, while by September the surface temperature increased and soil moisture decreased. The graphs of changes in the Normalized Difference Moisture Index (NDMI) were constructed based on Sentinel-2 satellite data and temperature fluctuations based on Landsat-9 Thermal InfraRed Sensor (TIRS) satellite data for a sixmonth period under 50% cloudiness. This comparison confirms seasonal variations affecting the reliability of the interpretation of electromagnetic parameters. It was shown that the RSE application is a promising tool for restoring meteorological conditions and taking into account seasonal factors when calculating the electrical resistivity of soils, which increases the accuracy of geophysical monitoring and design of grounding devices.
