Ice sheet studies using synthetic aperture radar [PDF]

open access: yes
The objective was to demonstrate the utility of synthetic aperture radar in ice sheet studies. The major advantage of SAR imagery over visible imagery is the all-weather capability of radar and the ability to specify look angle.

Characterizing Tidal Marsh Inundation with Synthetic Aperture Radar, Radiometric Modeling, and In Situ Water Level Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Tidal marshes play a globally critical role in carbon and hydrologic cycles by sequestering carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and exporting dissolved organic carbon to connected estuaries.

APQ-102 imaging radar digital image quality study [PDF]

open access: yes
A modified APQ-102 sidelooking radar collected synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data which was digitized and recorded on wideband magnetic tape. These tapes were then ground processed into computer compatible tapes (CCT's).

Synthetic aperture radar images of ocean waves, theories of imaging physics and experimental tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The physical mechanism for the synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging of ocean waves is investigated through the use of analytical models. The models are tested by comparison with data sets from the SEASAT mission and airborne SAR's.

Radar systems for the water resources mission, volume 2 [PDF]

open access: yes
The application of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) in monitoring and managing earth resources was examined. The function of spaceborne radar is to provide maps and map imagery to be used for earth resource and oceanographic applications.

Evaluation of SLAR and simulated thematic mapper MSS data for forest cover mapping using computer-aided analysis techniques [PDF]

open access: yes
Kershaw County, South Carolina was selected as the study site for analyzing simulated thematic mapper MSS data and dual-polarized X-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. The impact of the improved spatial and spectral characteristics of the LANDSAT D

One Transmitter - Two Receiver Moving Target SAR Imaging

open access: yesElectrica, 2019
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging algorithm for the moving targets with some motion irregularities are investigated. For accurate SAR imaging of the moving targets, position and the velocity of the object according to the radar platform must be ...

Surface processes on Venus [PDF]

open access: yes
Magellan synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and altimetry data were analyzed to determine the nature and extent of surface modification for venusian plains in the Sedna Planitia, Alpha Regio, and western Ovda Regio areas. Specific cross sections derived from

Effects of range bin shape and Doppler filter response in a digital SAR data processor [PDF]

open access: yes
In calibrating the backscatter coefficient obtained with an imaging synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system to determine absolute values of radar cross-section and reflectivity it is common practice to use a target of known radar cross-section placed ...

Remote sensing of Earth terrain [PDF]

open access: yes
Remote sensing of earth terrain is examined. The layered random medium model is used to investigate the fully polarimetric scattering of electromagnetic waves from vegetation. The model is used to interpret the measured data for vegetation fields such as
