STRATUS: A new mission concept for monitoring the subsurface of polar and arid regions
This paper presents the SaTellite RAdar sounder for earTh sUbsurface Sensing (STRATUS), which is a satellite mission for Earth Observation (EO) with an onboard instrument capable of probing the Earth's subsurface in polar and arid regions. STRATUS is based on an innovative distributed radar sou...
