Abstract

In the framework of the Alpilles-ReSeDA (Remote Sensing Data Assimilation) project, a consistent and comprehensive helicopterborne C-X band radar data set has been acquired during a complete vegetation cycle. General behavior of the data in terms of the season, the soil moisture and the soil roughness are presented here
