Water stress detection in the Amazon using radar
Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 The Amazon rainforest plays an important role in the global water and carbon cycle, and though it is predicted to continue drying in the future, the effect of drought remains uncertain.

Radar Backscatter and Crop Residues
Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 1996 RESUMEIl est difficile d'isoler les effets produits par les residus de culture sur la retrodiffusion radar en raison de la confusion avec les effets dus au travail du sol. Cette etude avait pour objet de quantifier les effets produits par les residus de culture sur la retrodiffusion radar independamment du travail du sol.

Radar backscatter from stationary breaking waves [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1999 Radar backscatter measurements from stationary breaking waves were used to examine how the surface roughness generated by wave breaking affects radar backscatter at moderate incidence angles. Stationary breaking waves were generated by submerging a stationary hydrofoil in a uniform flow.

C-Band SAR Imagery for Snow-Cover Monitoring at Treeline, Churchill, Manitoba, Canada
Remote Sensing, 2012 RADARSAT and ERS-2 data collected at multiple incidence angles are used to characterize the seasonal variations in the backscatter of snow-covered landscapes in the northern Hudson Bay Lowlands during the winters of 1997/98 and 1998/99.
