Abstract

Microwave remote sensing systems are widely used for remote sensing of the earth surface due to their nearly all-weather, day/night capability and relatively large penetration depth. Microwave remote sensing techniques have been applied effectively for estimating the surface soil moisture in a variety of environmental conditions [1, 2, 3, 4]. Remote sensing of forest canopies using active and passive microwave systems is an advanced tool for ecosystem monitoring [5, 6, 7, 8]. Microwave radiometers could give additional information about dense forest biomass, where other remote sensing systems (optical radiometers, SAR) suffer the early saturation effect [7,8].
