Synthetic aperture sonar imaging using compressive sensing and an ultrasound transducer array [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Includes bibliographical references.Compressive sensing (CS) also known as compressive sampling is a technique used to reconstruct or recover the full-length of a signal with only a few non-adaptive measurements.

Soil Moisture Retrieval Using Polarimetric SAR Data and Experimental Observations in an Arid Environment

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021
Soil moisture is a critical component for Earth science studies, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data have high potential for retrieving soil moisture using backscattering models.

Robust Regional Contrast but Penetration‐Sensitive Snow Thickness Over Sea Ice From Multi‐Winter Antarctic CRYO2ICE Observations

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Snow on Antarctic sea ice modulates albedo, thermodynamic growth, and snow–ice formation, yet remains a leading uncertainty in altimetry‐derived sea‐ice thickness. Here we use the post‐2022 CRYO2ICE configuration to derive along‐track winter snow thickness from ICESat‐2 laser and CryoSat‐2 Ku‐band radar freeboards over the Weddell and Ross ...

What SAR Labels Hide About a Changing Arctic

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has been the backbone of Arctic sea ice monitoring since the 1990s, yet nearly every operational product that assigns an ice class or geophysical state (melt onset dates, freeze‐up timing, ice‐type classifications) is derived by compressing continuous radar backscatter into discrete categorical labels.

Analysis of the Charge Structure and Lightning Activity During a Severe Beijing Thunderstorm via an Innovative Balloon‐Borne 3D Electric Field Observation System

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract We developed an innovative balloon‐borne observation system based on China's BeiDou sounding platform that integrates a three‐axis electric field sensor for in‐cloud measurements of thunderstorm electrification. On 13 May 2025, this system was deployed during a severe convective storm over Beijing. In combination with multisource observations,

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Soil Moisture Operational Product System: An overview and data assimilation applications

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration–National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) developed the Soil Moisture Operational Product System (SMOPS) to serve as a one‐stop shop for all available microwave satellite soil moisture observations.

Characterizing Tidal Marsh Inundation with Synthetic Aperture Radar, Radiometric Modeling, and In Situ Water Level Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Tidal marshes play a globally critical role in carbon and hydrologic cycles by sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and exporting dissolved organic carbon to connected estuaries.

Analysis of Azimuthal Variations Using Multi-Aperture Polarimetric Entropy with Circular SAR Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
In conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR), sensors with a fixed look angle are assumed, and the scattering properties are considered as invariant in the azimuth.

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.
