Abstract: 

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) possesses the inherent capabilities of all-day, all-weather, penetrable, high-resolution imaging over large areas. It can be deployed on aircraft or satellites for Earth Observation. SAR measures the backscattered information from targets, and fully polarized SAR enables a fully description of target backscattering characteristics. Owing to its distinctive imaging advantages, SAR remote sensing exhibits unique application potential in diverse applications, such as agriculture, forestry, hydrology, oceanography, and disaster management, etc. The objective of this study is to develop advanced techniques for polarimetric SAR image processing by explore its specific characterisitcs to advance the Earth observation capablity.
