Monitoring Glacier Changes Using Multitemporal Multipolarization SAR Images

This paper presents a processing chain for the change detection of Arctic glaciers from multitemporal multipolarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. We produce terrain-corrected multilook complex covariance data by including the effects of topography on both geolocation and SAR radiometry...
