Abstract
This paper describes an algorithm aimed at monitoring the soil moisture and the growth cycle of wheat fields using radar data. The algorithm is based on neural networks trained by an electromagnetic model and multitemporal ground data measured on fields taken as a reference. The retrieval procedure is tested using mutitemporal signatures collected at a test site.
