Uavsar L-Band and P-Band Tomographic Experiments in Boreal Forests
2018
SAR tomographic methods have proven extremely adept at measuring vegetation vertical structure at a variety of wavelengths including L and P-bands [2]. Measuring the three dimensional structure of vegetation and its changes resulting from either natural or anthropogenic causes are key parameters in monitoring ecosystems. The NASA/JPL UAVSAR system has deployed to multiple sites including Alaska over the last several years to conduct tomographic SAR observations at L-band and P-band. This talk will provide a brief overview of a tomographic SAR experiment conducted in the boreal forests of Alaska in August and September of 2017 at both L and P-bands. This site consists mostly of relatively short vegetation with mean height less than 20 m and maximal height less than 25 m. It is sparse compared with previous temperate and tropical forest tomographic observations made by UAVSAR. These observations provides a unique data set to compare tomographic data at L and P-bands for this type ofbiome.
