Space-borne polarimetric SAR sensors or the golden age of radar polarimetry
SAR Polarimetry represents an active area of research in Active Earth Remote Sensing. This interest is clearly supported by the fact that nowadays there exists, or there will exist in a very next future, a non negligible quantity of launched ...

First 3-D reconstructions of target hidden beneath foliage by means of polarimetric SAR tomography [PDF]
SAR tomography (SARTom) is an imaging technique that allows multiple phase center separation in the vertical direction, leading to a 3-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the imaged scene. Retrieval of volume structure information (e.g.

Potential & challenges of polarimetric SAR interferometry techniques for forest parameter estimation in the context of the BIOMASS mission [PDF]
World forests contain a significant amount of carbon that is, in consequence of natural and human induced deforestation and regrowth processes, affected by rapid changes and therefore difficult to quantify in terms of biomass/carbon storage.
