Application of a plane-stratified emission model to predict the effects of vegetation in passive microwave radiometry
This paper reports the application to vegetation canopies of a coherent model for the propagation of electromagnetic radiation through a stratified medium. The resulting multi-layer vegetation model is plausibly realistic in that it recognises the dielectric permittivity of the vegetation matter, th...
