On the remote sensing of oceanic and atmospheric convection in the Greenland Sea by synthetic aperture radar

, 2004
In this paper we discuss characteristic properties of radar signatures of oceanic and atmospheric convection features in the Greenland Sea. If the water surface is clean (no surface films or ice coverage), oceanic and atmospheric features can become ...

Retrieving Surface Soil Moisture over Wheat and Soybean Fields during Growing Season Using Modified Water Cloud Model from Radarsat-2 SAR Data

Remote Sensing, 2019
Surface soil moisture (SSM) retrieval over agricultural fields using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data is often obstructed by the vegetation effects on the backscattering during the growing season.

Numerical Simulation of SAR Image for Sea Surface

Remote Sensing, 2022
Based on the simulated signal, a numerical simulation method of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging for time-varying sea surfaces is proposed, which is helpful to study the SAR imaging mechanism of time-varying sea surfaces so as to better extract ...

RADARSAT-2 ground segment

Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 2004
The RADARSAT-2 ground segment has been designed based on the need to support the advanced capabilities of the RADARSAT-2 spacecraft, the need to support a commercial mission with increased data and order volumes, and the body of experience and lessons learned from the operation of the RADARSAT-1 mission. The design was produced in consultation with the

Bias-Corrected RADARSAT-2 Soil Moisture Dynamics Reveal Discharge Hysteresis at An Agricultural Watershed

Remote Sensing, 2023
Satellites are designed to monitor geospatial data over large areas at a catchment scale. However, most of satellite validation works are conducted at local point scales with a lack of spatial representativeness.

Flood Mapping and Flood Dynamics of the Mekong Delta: ENVISAT-ASAR-WSM Based Time Series Analyses [PDF]

, 2013
Satellite remote sensing is a valuable tool for monitoring flooding. Microwave sensors are especially appropriate instruments, as they allow the differentiation of inundated from non-inundated areas, regardless of levels of solar illumination or ...
