Temporal Survey of P- and L-Band Polarimetric Backscatter in Boreal Forests

Environmental conditions and seasonal variations affect the backscattered radar signal from a forest. This potentially causes errors in a biomass retrieval scheme using data from the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. A better understanding of these effects and the electromagnetic scattering mecha...
