Modeling temporal evolution of junco marshes radar signatures

In this work, multitemporal synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data in conjunction with an electromagnetic (EM) model and a vegetation growth model were used to monitor and explain burn-regrowth events of junco vegetation in a wetland environment. The data used were from Radarsat-1, ENVISAT Advanced Syn...

description In this work, multitemporal synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data in conjunction with an electromagnetic (EM) model and a vegetation growth model were used to monitor and explain burn-regrowth events of junco vegetation in a wetland environment. The data used were from Radarsat-1, ENVISAT Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR), and European Remote Sensing 2 (ERS-2) temporal series. The EM model is based on radiative transfer theory and describes junco vegetation as a set of vertical dielectric cylinders on a flat flooded surface. It was used, together with the vegetation growth model, to predict the temporal evolution of the radar response during a burn-regrowth event.
