2. Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar for Sea Ice Observations, Concentration and Dynamics
Abstract : Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is the primary choice for sea ice monitoring due to its all-weather, day-and-night capability and regular delivery of high resolution images. This thesis presents methods for estimation of sea ice concentration and drift, a multi-sensor study of Baltic Sea ice radar signatures and an interferometric study of landfast sea ice. READ MORE

3. Modelling Microwave Backscattering from Sea Ice for Synthetic-Aperture Radar Applications
Abstract : The spaceborne synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) is considered one of the key instruments for monitoring the ice cover in polar oceans and regional seas. This thesis is concerned with applications of electromagnetic scattering theory and SAR system theory for modelling the response of different types of sea ice in SAR imagery. READ MORE

4. Modelling and Retrieval of Forest Parameters from Synthetic Aperture Radar Data
Abstract : Currently, one of the most uncertain factors in the global carbon cycle models lies in the terrestrialcarbon stock, mainly forests. The available methods for global forest resource mapping provide onlyrough estimates of biomass, the most relevant practical quantity related to carbon stock. READ MORE

5. Estimation of Forest Biomass and Faraday Rotation using Ultra High Frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar
Abstract : Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data in the Ultra High Frequency (UHF; 300 MHz – 3 GHz)) band have been shown to be strongly dependent of forest biomass, which is a poorly estimated variable in the global carbon cycle. In this thesis UHF-band SAR data from the fairly flat hemiboreal test site Remningstorp in southern Sweden were analysed. READ MORE
