Repeat Pass Aircraft Interferometry Results at Portage Lake, Maine, and Innisfail, Australia

The NASA/JPL AIRSAR/TOPSAR instruments have the capability fo collecting fully polarimetric radar data at three wavelengths (C, L and P-Bands) and dual antenna interferometry at C-Band, and more recently, L-Band. In order to understand frequency and baseline dependent scattering effects in vegetated regions, repeat pass interferometry data was collected for two vegetated regions in 1993....Preliminary analysis if the data show that the smaller the wavelength, the greater the temporal decorrelation between passes, and the longer the wavelength, the greater the penetration depth for some types of vegetation canopies...
