Cross-track synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry is a powerful technique that
analyzes the phase shift each pixel undergoes between acquisitions of the same scene with�…

During the last decade, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) became an indispensable source of
information in Earth observation. This has been possible mainly due to the current trend�…

Synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) systems are widely used for monitoring vegetation and
forested environments. Those that offer large-scale coverage, short revisiting times, and an�…

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data collected over a 2-D synthetic aperture can be
processed to focus the illuminated scatterers in the 3-D space, using a number of signal�…

Forest height is of great significance for forest resource management and forest carbon sink
estimation. Tomographic synthetic aperture radar (TomoSAR) technology provides an�…

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) tomography is a 3-D imaging modality that is commonly
tackled by spectral estimation techniques. Thus, the backscattered power along the cross�…

Mapping tropical forest aboveground biomass (AGB) is important for quantifying emissions
from land use change and evaluating climate mitigation strategies but remains a challenging�…

In this paper, we introduce two spatially adaptive filtering methods to improve the estimation
of the covariance matrix (CM), which is required for the processing of tomographic SAR data�…

Forest structure is a key parameter for forest applications, but it is difficult to be estimated at
the required spatial and temporal scales. In this context, synthetic aperture radar�…

This chapter critically summarizes the main theoretical aspects necessary for a correct
processing and interpretation of the polarimetric information towards the development of�…
