Abstract :
Some of the problems with analyzing SAR imagery for Earth-surface change-detection are discussed, along with solutions for hydrological applications. These involve analysis of long time-series of terrain corrected scenes. Examples of such analyses are given for watersheds in Alaska and Siberia
