Description

Inverted soil moisture mv based on the linearized model for the interferometric phase  at HH and VV polarization obtained using UAVSAR L-band data acquired during the CanEx-SM10 campaign. The linearized model with the uniform parameterization is applied over the entire image, including to fields that decorrelate during the campaign (e.g. tilling) or to open water bodies. Note that the phase is not atmospherically corrected.
