Time Series of Hybrid-Polarity Parameters Over Agricultural Crops
An example of the potential of hybrid-polarity architecture parameters for agricultural monitoring is presented in this letter. Time series of such descriptors have been generated from quad-polarization radar airborne measurements at the L-band acquired during the AgriSAR 2006 campaign. An assessment on the sensitivity of…
Assimilation of Drifter Data in a Circulation Model of the Indian Ocean
Assimilation of drifter data in a circulation model of the Indian Ocean has been explored in the study. Assimilation has been effected using the approach of nudging. The impact of such assimilation has been quantified by comparing the sea level anomalies simulated in runs with…
Contextual Descriptors for Scene Classes in Very High Resolution SAR Images
The new generation of spaceborne SAR instruments with meter or submeter resolution finds enormous applications for the observation of urban, industrial, in general of man-made scenes. Thus, targets are not any more observed in isolation, instead the groups of objects, e.g., house, bridge, and road,…

Temporal Scale of Sea Surface Temperature Fronts Revealed by Microwave Observations
Sea surface temperature (SST) data for three years from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for the Earth Observing System are used to statistically evaluate the temporal scales of the global SST fronts (SSTFs). Using the entropy-based edge detection method which is very resistant to impulsive…
