  • Abstract
    The accurate imaging of terrain covered by forest is important for environmental and surveillance applications. This paper reports on techniques and results for the formation and analysis of SAR images from fully-polarimetric, low-frequency radar data collected over a tropical forest near Tully in Queensland, Australia.
