Coastal Wetland Classification with GF-3 Polarimetric SAR Imagery by Using Object-Oriented Random Forest Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2021
When the use of optical images is not practical due to cloud cover, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery is a preferred alternative for monitoring coastal wetlands because it is unaffected by weather conditions.

Polarimetric SAR Speckle Reduction Based on Bilateral Filtering

open access: yesLeida xuebao, 2014
The priority during speckle reduction in Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (Pol-SAR) data is to maintain the polarization information. For this reason, it is undesirable to separate each element of polarimetric SAR.

Flood Inundation Modeling Using the Surface Water Ocean Topography Mission

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Flood risk mapping requires detailed river bathymetry, yet these data are unavailable for most rivers. We propose a new algorithm to estimate river bathymetry from multitemporal observations of water height by the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission.

Contribution of Minimum Noise Fraction Transformation of Multi-temporal RADARSAT-2 Polarimetric SAR Data to Cropland Classification

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 2018
Agriculture is an important sector in Canada, and annual crop inventories are required in many agricultural applications. Multi-temporal polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data have great potential in crop classification due to its less ...

ST‐TFFM‐Observer: A Global Ionospheric TEC Prediction Model Based on Dynamic System Theory With Enhanced Time‐Frequency Dependence Modeling

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract ST‐Observer is a novel proposed spatiotemporal prediction model based on dynamic system theory, which has been proven to be superior to existing models in multiple spatiotemporal prediction tasks. However, its structural design results in weak time dependent modeling capabilities and a lack of frequency dependent modeling capabilities.

Full-polarimetric scattering characteristics prediction from single/dual-polarimetric SAR data using convolutional neural networks

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
Scattering entropy (H), scattering angle (α) and anti-entropy (A) are useful parameters in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image classification. Usually, full-polarimetric SAR data are needed to extract these parameters. In this study, the authors firstly

Improved Tropical Cyclone Wind Estimation Using Dual‐Polarization C‐Band SAR and Machine Learning

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) characterized by extreme wind speeds present severe hazards to human life and infrastructure. Spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has emerged as a critical observational tool for TCs, owing to its all‐weather, high‐resolution imaging capabilities.

Soil moisture retrieval under wheat crop using RISAT-1 hybrid polarimetric SAR data

open access: yesJournal of Agrometeorology, 2019
The study aims to retrieve soil moisture from RISAT-1 hybrid polarimetric SAR data. Although the use of linear polarimetric SAR data has been well understood and documented, but hybrid polarimetric SAR data is grossly under explored and under reported ...
