Surface roughness and polarization ratio in microwave remote sensing

S Hong - International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2010 - Taylor & Francis
The characteristics of the polarization ratio in the case of rough surfaces are investigated. In
addition, an inversion method is also proposed for retrieving the surface roughness over …
