The influence of surface canopy water on L-band backscatter from corn

A study combining detailed In situ data and the Tor Vergata radiative transfer model

The presence, duration, and amount of surface canopy water (SCW) is important in microwave remote sensing for agricultural applications. Our current understanding of the effect of SCW on total backscatter and the underlying mechanisms is limited. The aim of this study is to inves ...
The latest developments in radar mission concepts suggest that subdaily synthetic aperture radar will become available in the next decades. The goal of this study was to demonstrate the potential value of subdaily spaceborne radar for monitoring vegetation water dynamics, which i ...
