A joint analysis of C-band dual-pol Sentinel-1A data and L-band full-pol SAOCOM-1A data is presented to investigate their sensitivity to soil moisture over an agricultural area located near the city of Monte Buey in the Córdoba Province, Argentina. The temporal evolution of the backscattering coefficient σ0 at different polarizations is analyzed with respect to in-situ soil moisture measurements collected during a field campaign as well as data recorded by ground stations from a permanent network. Sensitivity to vegetation parameters is also discussed. The fully polarimetric electromagnetic model developed at Tor Vergata University is used to compare simulated and measured σ0 for corn fields.

Abstract

A joint analysis of C-band dual-pol Sentinel-1A data and L-band full-pol SAOCOM-1A data is presented to investigate their sensitivity to soil moisture over an agricultural area located near the city of Monte Buey in the Córdoba Province, Argentina. The temporal evolution of the backscattering coefficient σ0 at different polarizations is analyzed with respect to in-situ soil moisture measurements collected during a field campaign as well as data recorded by ground stations from a permanent network. Sensitivity to vegetation parameters is also discussed. The fully polarimetric electromagnetic model developed at Tor Vergata University is used to compare simulated and measured σ0 for corn fields.
