Annotation:
The aim of the project is to develop a new method for monitoring the condition of forest stands using microwave satellite imaging with the application of artificial or natural corner reflectors. This method could, in the future, enable more accurate estimates of moisture content, water potential, health status, biomass, and many other forest parameters anywhere in the world. The project is being carried out at TU Dresden, where the principal investigator holds the position of Postdoctoral Researcher.
