Electromagnetic modeling of P-band polarimetric SAR signatures of a polythermal ice cap

This paper is aimed at providing a physical interpretation of the polarimetric SAR (PolSAR) signatures observed over a subpolar (polythermal) ice cap. After an exploratory analysis of the PolSAR data revealing the presence of a strong volume scattering component, an existing anisotropic volume scatt...
