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.
