Principal Component Analysis In Radar Polarimetry [PDF]
Second order moments of multivariate (often Gaussian) joint probability density functions can be described by the covariance or normalised correlation matrices or by the Kennaugh matrix (Kronecker matrix).

Survey of Transverse Range Fire Scars in 10 Years of UAVSAR Polarimetry [PDF]
Because cross‐polarized radar returns are highly associated with volume scatter, radar polarimetry returns tend to show strong evidence of wildfire scars and recovery in forest and chaparral.

Dual-Polarization Radar Fingerprints of Precipitation Physics: A Review
This article reviews how precipitation microphysics processes are observed in dual-polarization radar observations. These so-called “fingerprints” of precipitation processes are observed as vertical gradients in radar observables.

Hybrid Dual-Polarization Synthetic Aperture Radar
Compact polarimetry for a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system is reviewed. Compact polarimetry (CP) is intended to provide useful polarimetric image classifications while avoiding the disadvantages of space-based quadrature-polarimetric (quad-pol) SARs.
