A New Empirical Model for Radar Scattering from Bare Soil Surfaces

A New Empirical Model for Radar Scattering from Bare Soil Surfaces

The objective of this paper is to propose a new semi-empirical radar backscattering model for bare soil surfaces based on the Dubois model. A wide dataset of backscattering coefficients extracted from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and in situ soil surface parameter measurements (moisture con...
