Urban morphology parameters from global digital elevation models: implications for aerodynamic roughness for wind-speed estimation [PDF]
Urban morphology and aerodynamic roughness parameters are derived from three global digital elevation models (GDEM): Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), and TanDEM-X. Initially,

On some spectral properties of TanDEM-X interferograms over forested areas [PDF]
This letter reports about some obervations over rainforest (in Brazil and Indonesia), where the spectra of TanDEM-X interferograms show distinct features, almost a signature, which is explained and modelled in terms of the scattering properties ...
