Abstract

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) capability to penetrate clouds and acquire data in all-weather condition makes it useful for monitoring and inventory purpose in the Indian context. SAR signal can penetrate deeper into vegetation and give information about the structure of leaves, stems and the background soil moisture content. The variation in SAR signal response due to crop structural properties and canopy moisture content from sowing to senescence stage is suitable for the utilization of microwave remote sensing for the crop type identification, growth monitoring and yield modeling. In this context, field campaigns are a very important component of the process of validating satellite-based geophysical products (LAI, biomass, soil moisture). The proposed work involves the acquisition of satellite imageries and in-synchronous crop related field measurements. As per the objectives of the project, the analysis will be performed using quad and dual-polarimetric descriptors and polarimetric target decompositions. In addition, we will try to use optical sensor data products for support.<br />{"references":["Mandal D, Kumar V, Rao Y, Bhattacharya A, Bera S, Nanda MK.
