Title
Assessment of a Power Law Relationship Between P-Band SAR Backscatter and Aboveground Biomass and Its Implications for BIOMASS Mission Performance.
Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of a logarithmic relationship between P-band cross-polarized backscatter from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and aboveground biomass (AGB) across different forest types based on multiple airborne datasets. It is found that the logarithmic function provides a statistically significant fit to the observed relationship between HV backscatter and AGB. While the coeffici...
