Synthetic Aperture Radar: Ecosystems
Enroll now →
About this course
This online course will introduce the contributions of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) remote sensing to the monitoring of Earth’s ecosystems. Learn how the weather-independence of SAR combined with its ability to penetrate into vegetation canopies make SAR an excellent information source to characterize vegetation structure, measure above-ground biomass, and analyze the change of vegetation long term and throughout the seasons.
What you'll learn
- understand the principles of Synthetic Aperture Radar
- identify the applications of SAR in environmental monitoring
- analyze vegetation structure and biomass with SAR data
- evaluate long-term and seasonal changes in ecosystems using SAR
