Discrimination of Geological Top-Formations by their Morphology through SAR Images and via Fractal Geometry implementation in IEM Backscattering Model(Case Study: Zagros Thrust Belt)

Morphological discrimination of geological top-formations is the supplemental procedure of geological mapping; so in situ measurements to register geomorphological data are unavoidable; though due to the impassable and fault cliffs field operations to visit all areas within a geological map is almost impossible. Microwave or radar remote sensing, via synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images is cap...

On the characterization of agricultural soil roughness for radar remote sensing studies

The surface roughness parameters commonly used as inputs to electromagnetic surface scattering models (SPM, PO, GO and IEM) are the root mean square (RMS) height s and autocorrelation length l. However soil moisture retrieval studies based on these models have yielded inconsistent results, not so much because of the failure of the models themselves, but because of the complexity of natural surf...

Evaluation of the Oh, Dubois and IEM Backscatter Models Using a Large Dataset of SAR Data and Experimental Soil Measurements

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the most used radar backscattering models (Integral Equation Model “IEM”, Oh, Dubois, and Advanced Integral Equation Model “AIEM”) using a wide dataset of SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data and experimental soil measurements. These forward models reproduce the radar backscattering coefficients (σ0) from soil surface characteristics (dielectric constant, rou...

Estimating Surface Soil Moisture Using Radarsat-2

Extremes in soil moisture, either too much or too little, present a significant risk to agricultural productivity. Managing and mitigating risk requires information and knowledge to assess risk potential, implement risk reduction strategies and deliver responses to this risk. Synthetic aperture radars (SARs) are sensitive to the dielectric properties of soils and are thus well suited to provide...

Potential of X-Band TerraSAR-X and COSMO-SkyMed SAR Data for the Assessment of Physical Soil Parameters

The aim of this paper is to analyze the potential of X-band SAR measurements (COSMO-SkyMed and TerraSAR-X) made over bare soils for the estimation of soil moisture and surface geometry parameters at a semi-arid site in Tunisia (North Africa). Radar signals acquired with different configurations (HH and VV polarizations, incidence angles of 26° and 36°) are statistically compared with ground mea...
