Radarsat-2 Backscattering for the Modeling of Biophysical Parameters of Regenerating Mangrove Forests

The aim of this study is to understand the relationship between radar backscattering (σ°, β° and γ) of a multi-polarized Radarsat-2 C-band image with the structural attributes of regenerating mangrove vegetation located at the mouth of the Amazon River. CBH (circumference at breast height), height a...
