Nikaein, T. (author), López-Dekker, Paco (author), Steele-Dunne, S.C. (author), Kumar, V. (author), Huber, M. (author)In this article, our aim is to estimate synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observables, such as backscatter in VV and VH polarizations, as well as the VH/VV ratio, cross ratio, and interferometric coherence in VV, from agricultural fields. In this study, we use the decision support system for agrotechnology transfer (DSSAT) crop-growth simulation...journal article 2023
