Abstract
An extended Bragg scattering model, for fully polarimetric SAR data, is here proposed for describing sea surface scattering. Moreover, the model is considered to examine the scattering contributions from sea surface and detected dark areas due to the presence of anthropogenic and biogenic slicks. Experiments are conducted on fully polarimetric C- and L-band SAR data.
