Polarimetric radar measurements of a tropical rainforestIn Mar. 1990, the NASA/JPL DC-8 Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (AIRSAR) was flown over an area in northern Belize and the surrounding areas of Guatamala and Mexico. We have extracted the three-frequency polarimetric signatures of a variety of natural areas and have found that many appear to have a unique radar signature, if all polarizations and frequencies are examined.
