News - Data Release news
New BorealScat campaign dataset released
A new dataset has been released for the BorealScat campaign, which took place between 2017 and 2021 in Sweden.
Campaign
BorealScat
The main objective of “BorealScat – Technical Assistance for the Deployment of a Tower-based Radar and Geophysical Measurements during the BorealScat Experiment” was to characterise and quantify the temporal variations of radar observations of a forest stand over timescales ranging from seconds to years and to investigate the effects of environmental variables.
