Abstract :
The results are described of bare soil remote sensing at X- and Kalpha-bands: the angular dependences of the normalized RCS for different test areas, dependence of the normalized RCS on soil moisture and surface roughness, polarization dependences of scattered signal on soil moisture and surface roughness.
