Assessing the sensitivity of multi-frequency passive microwave vegetation optical depth to vegetation properties
<p>Vegetation attenuates the microwave emission from the land surface. The strength of this attenuation is quantified in models in terms of the parameter vegetation optical depth (VOD) and is influenced by the vegetation mass, structure, water content, and observation wavelength. Earth observa...
