Wetlands monitoring by ERS SAR data.pdf
The objectives of this study were to assess the suitability of ERS SAR images in monitoring the seasonal changes of the wetland areas which are difficult to monitor on land. Lake Bangweulu in Zambia was selected for the study. An additional objective was to carry out a comparison of the results obtained from both ERS SAR and NOAA AVHRR data.

Campaign
TropiScat
The major objectives of the experiment were the temporal survey of the variation of the measurements in time scales ranging from diurnal, weekly, monthly, up to 12 months of observation.
Campaign
TropiSAR 2009
The TropiSAR campaign objectives were the evaluation of P-Band radar imaging over tropical forests for biomass and forest height estimation.
