    Soil and Hydrology

    The increasing availability of multidimensional SAR data motivates the development of new techniques for analysis, decomposition, and joint information extraction. In this work, we explore the integration of physical polarimetric models into tensor decompositions to estimate geophysical parameters like soil moisture.
    In vegetated areas, SAR backscatter signal contains both the information...

    Soil and Hydrology

    Soil moisture is a critical parameter when agricultural practices, such as irrigation management, are involved and in 2010 it has been included among the Essential Climate Variable (ECV). Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data allow estimating soil moisture based on high temporal frequency and accuracy. Unfortunately, radar data are not only sensitive to the dielectric properties of the soil,...

    Soil and Hydrology

    Accurate soil moisture determination over a region enhances our understanding of the hydrological processes, climate interaction and ecosystem dynamics. Timely soil moisture information can support sustainable agriculture, land and water management, urban planning and contributes to disaster preparedness such as floods and landslides. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data, particularly in...

    In May 2023 the northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna was hit by a series of floods. The first one occurred on 2-3 May after several months of drought. More severe floods hit Emilia-Romagna starting from 16–17 May 2023. During the latter event, more than 20 rivers burst their banks, about 15 people were killed, thousands people were displaced, and public transportation was stopped.
