Abstract

The statistical analysis of the microwave emission data from furrowed fields received with the airborne microwave radiometer system in 1986, 1987 years is presented. The experimentally derived results indicate a weak relation between the polarization index of the zenithal microwave emission and the dispersion of the brightness temperature data and ground parameters: surface roughness period and soil permittivity vertical profile
