Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters (GRSL)

The IEEE GEOSCIENCE AND REMOTE SENSING LETTERS is a quarterly publication for short papers (maximum length 5 pages) addressing new ideas and formative concepts in remote sensing as well as important new and timely results and concepts.
Papers should relate to the theory, concepts, and techniques of science and engineering as applied to sensing the earth, oceans, atmosphere, and space, and the processing, interpretation, and dissemination of this information.
The technical content of papers must be both new and significant. Experimental data must be complete and include sufficient description of experimental apparatus, methods, and relevant experimental conditions. GRSL encourages the incorporation of “extended objects” or “multimedia” such as animations to enhance the shorter papers. As soon as papers are accepted and materials are available at IEEE, they will appear online through the IEEE digital library Xplore. A paper version of each paper will appear in January, April, July, and October.

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 acquire…

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 anomali…

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 gr…
