This 2002 introduction to the use of radar for remote sensing of
natural surfaces provides the reader with a thorough grounding in
practical applications, focusing particularly on terrestrial
studies that may be extended to other planets. An historical
overview of the subject is followed by an introduction to the
nomenclature and methodology pertaining to radar data collection,
image interpretation and surface roughness analysis. The author
then presents a summary (illustrated with black and white examples
from the natural environment) of theoretical explanations for the
backscatter properties of continuous rough surfaces, collections of
discrete objects, and layered terrain. Case studies of radar
surveys of the Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars complete the book. The
level is appropriate for students and professionals across a broad
range of scientific disciplines including Earth and planetary
sciences, electrical engineering, and remote sensing. Particular
emphasis is given to practical geological and geophysical studies
of the terrestrial planets.
