Nation-wide clear-cut mapping in Sweden using ALOS PALSAR strip images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) Phased Array L-band type Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) backscatter images with 50 m pixel size (strip images) at HV-polarization were used to map clear-cuts at a regional and national level in Sweden.

Validation for Ice Flow Velocity Variations of Shirase Glacier Derived From PALSAR-2 Offset Tracking

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
We have shown that the flow velocity of Shirase Glacier can be estimated by applying the offset tracking method to the amplitude images derived from the phased array type L-band synthetic aperture radar type-2 (PALSAR-2) onboard the Advanced Land ...

Calibration and Validation of Polarimetric ALOS2-PALSAR2

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
PALSAR2 polarimetric distortion matrix is measured using corner reflectors deployed in the Amazonian forest. The Amazonian forest near the geomagnetic equator provides ideal sites for the assessment of L-band PALSAR2 antenna parameters, at free Faraday ...

COMPARISON OF THE USE OF SENTINEL-1 SAR AND ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 IN MANGROVE ABOVEGROUND BIOMASS ESTIMATION IN SAN JUAN, BATANGAS, PHILIPPINES [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
This study compares the potential of Sentinel-1 and ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 in estimating mangrove aboveground biomass (AGB) in San Juan, Batangas, Philippines. Mangrove forests are essential coastal ecosystems that are facing growing threats.

Forest Changes by Precipitation Zones in Northern China after the Three-North Shelterbelt Forest Program in China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
China launched the Three-North Shelterbelt Forest Program (TNSFP) in 1978 in northern China to combat desertification and dust storms, but it is still controversial in ecologically fragile arid and semi-arid areas, which is partly due to the ...

Monitoring of an Indonesian Tropical Wetland by Machine Learning-Based Data Fusion of Passive and Active Microwave Sensors

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
In this study, a novel data fusion approach was used to monitor the water-body extent in a tropical wetland (Lake Sentarum, Indonesia). Monitoring is required in the region to support the conservation of water resources and biodiversity.
