Surface Change Detection on Venus: An Inter‐Mission Comparison Framework Between Magellan and Future Radar Images

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Detecting surface changes on Venus by comparing Magellan synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data with future high‐resolution data from Envision and VERITAS will be essential for constraining present‐day volcanism and characterizing planetary surface processes.

Operational Surface Water Detection and Monitoring Using Radarsat 2

Remote Sensing, 2016
Traditional on-site methods for mapping and monitoring surface water extent are prohibitively expensive at a national scale within Canada. Despite successful cost-sharing programs between the provinces and the federal government, an extensive number of ...

Polarimetric Measurements for Sentinel-1 and Radarsat Constellation Mission using Reference Point Targets [PDF]

The paper focuses on polarimetric measurements executed for two C-Band SAR missions: Sentinel-1 (S1) and Radarsat Constellation Mission (RCM). RCM is able to operate as a quad-pol system which transmits alternating-ly H and V polarization pulses and receives H and V simultaneously.

Beyond SMAP: Can GNSS‐R Platforms Ensure Continuity of Global Soil Moisture Observations?

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The absence of a definitive follow‐on strategy for the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission, which has already surpassed its planned mission lifetime, presents a significant challenge for the hydrological science community. GNSS‐Reflectometry (GNSS‐R), which exploits reflected satellite navigation signals, has emerged as a rapidly ...

Investigation of C-Band SAR Polarimetry for Mapping a High-Tidal Coastal Environment in Northern Canada

Remote Sensing, 2020
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has been used in characterizing intertidal zones along northern Canadian coastlines. RADARSAT-2, with its full polarimetric information, has been considered for monitoring these vulnerable ecosystems and helping enhance the

Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

Oil Spill Candidate Detection Using a Conditional Random Field Model on Simulated Compact Polarimetric Imagery

Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 2022
Although the compact polarimetric (CP) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) mode of the RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) offers new opportunities for oil spill candidate detection, there has not been an efficient machine learning model explicitly designed ...

What SAR Labels Hide About a Changing Arctic

Earth'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.
