뉴올리언스는 미시시피 강 하구에 위치하였으며 지난 2005년 허리케인 카트리나에 의해 큰 침수 피해를 입은 지역이다. 이 도시는 신생대 지층에 자리하고 있어 미고결층의 다짐작용 및 단층작용으로 최대 29mm 정도의 연간 침하율을 보여 왔다. 뉴올리언스의 계속된 침하작용은 평균해수면보다 낮은 지역에 위치한 도시의 침수위험성을 가중시키고 있어 현재 이에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. SAR영상을 이용한 차분간섭기법(DInSAR, Differential Interferometry of SAR)은 지반침하, 지진, 화산활동 등과 같이 수십 km$^2$에 걸쳐 발생하는 지표변위를 수cm-수mm의 정밀도로 관측 가능한 기술이다. 이 연구에서는 차분간섭기법을 이용하여 2005년 2월부터 2007년 2월까지 촬영된 21개의 RADARSAT-1 Fine beam mode(F5) 영상으로부터 25개의 차분간섭영상(DInSAR Interferogram)을 생성하였다. 또한 차분간섭도의 spatial decorrelation을 극복하고 시간에 따른 LOS 방향의 변위를 관측하기 위해 분석 알고리즘으로는 보완된 SBAS(small baseline subset)기법을 이용하였으며, 이 기법을 이용하여 대기의 영향 및 노이즈를 제거한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 우리는 LOS방향의 2차원 변위분포 맵을 작성하였으며, 그 결과 전체적인 침하율은 크지 않지만, 도시의 서쪽지점에서 나타나는 상대적으로 큰 -1.49cm/yr의 변위 값과 동쪽 지점에서 0.33cm/yr의 변위 값을 관측하였다. 이 같은 결과는 앞으로의 연구에서 실측 데이터 및 동일기간의 다른 SAR영상자료의 연구를 통해 보완해 나갈 것이다.

Multitemporal interferometric SAR has became an useful geodetic tool for monitoring Earth's surface deformation, generation of precise DEM, and land cover classification even though there still exist certain constraints such as temporal and spatial decorrelation effects, atmospheric artifacts and inaccurate orbit information. The Korea where nearly all areas are heavily vegetated, JERS-1 SAR has advantages in monitoring surface deformations and environmental changes in that it uses 4-times longer wavelength than ERS-l/2 or RADARSAT SAR system. For generating differential SAR interferogram and differential coherence image fer deformation mapping and temporal change detection, respectively, topographic phase removal process is required utilizing a reference inteferogram or external DEM simulation. Because the SAR antenna baseline parameter for JERS-1 is less accurate than those of ERS-l/2, one can not estimate topographic phases from an external DEM and the residual phase appears in differential interferogram. In this paper, we examined topographic phase retrieval method utilizing an external DEM. The baseline refinement is carried out by minimizing the differences between the measured unwrapped phase and the reference points of the DEM.

Ships and industries damage the delicate coastal ecosystem in many parts of the world by releasing oil or pollutants into rivers, coastal and offshore waters. After a tanker accident the biggest problem is to get a clear idea of the extent of the oil slick and predict the way it will move. For natural and man-made oil spills it is necessary to operate a regular and operational monitoring. In the Mediterranean, North and Baltic seas aircrafts or ships normally carry it out. This is expensive and is constrained by the limited availability of these resources, borders between countries, daylight hours, good weather conditions, etc. Satellite imagery can help greatly identifying probable spills over large areas and then guiding aerial surveys for precise observation of specific locations. The Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) instrument, which can collect data almost independently of weather and light conditions, is an excellent tool to monitor and detect oil on water surfaces. SAR is currently on board the ENVISAT, ERS-2 and RADARSAT satellites. The application of this technology to the investigation of oil pollution in the Caspian, Black, Mediterranean, North and Baltic seas is shown.

Oil spills are a principal factor of the ocean pollution. The complicated problems involved in detecting oil spills are usually due to varying wind and sea surface condition such as ocean wave and current. The Hebei Spirit accident was happened in the west sea ($36^{\circ}$41'04" N, $126^{\circ}$03'12" E) near about 8 km distant from Tae-An, Korea on December 7, 2007. The aim of this work is to improve the detection and classification performance in order to define a more accurate training set and identifying the feature of oil spill region. This paper deals with an optimization technique for the detection and classification scheme using multi-frequency and multi-polarization SAR and optical image data sets of the oil spilled sea. The used image data are the ENVISAT ASAR WS and Radarsat-1 of C-band and ALOS PALSAR of L-band SAR data and KOMPSAT-2 optical images together with meteorological or oceanographic data. Both the theory and the experimental results obtained are discussed.

Radar remote sensing is appropriate for monitoring rice because the areas where this crop is cultivated are often cloudy and rainy. Especially, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) can acquire remote sensing information with a high temporal resolution in tropical and subtropical regions due to its all-weather capability. This paper analyzes the relationships between backscattering coefficients of rice measured by RADARSAT-2 SAR and growth parameters during a rice growth period. We examined the temporal variations of backscattering coefficients with full polarization. Backscattering coefficients for all polarizations increased until Day Of Year (DOY 222) and then decreased along with Leaf Area Index (LAI), fresh weight, and Vegetation Water Content (VWC). Vertical transmit and Vertical receive polarization (VV)-polarization backscattering coefficients were higher than Horizontal transmit and Horizontal receive polarization (HH)-polarization backscattering coefficients in early rice growth stage and HH-polarization backscattering coefficients were higher than VV-polarization backscattering coefficients after effective tillering stage (DOY 186). Correlation analysis between backscattering coefficients and rice growth parameters revealed that HH-polarization was highly correlated with LAI, fresh weight, and VWC. Based on the observed relationships between backscattering coefficients and variables of cultivation, prediction equations were developed using the HH-polarization backscattering coefficients.

The vegetation index is a crucial parameter in many biophysical studies of vegetation, and is also a valuable content in ecological processes researching. The OVIs (Optical Vegetation Index) that of using multispectral and hyperspectral data have been widely investigated in the literature, while the RVI (Radar Vegetation Index) that of considering volume scattering measurement has been paid relatively little attention. Also, there was only some efforts have been put to fuse the OVI with the RVI as an integrated vegetation index. To address this issue, this paper presents a novel FVI (Fusion Vegetation Index) that uses multispectral and full-PolSAR (Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar) data. By fusing a NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) of RapidEye and an RVI of C-band Radarsat-2, we demonstrated that the proposed FVI has higher separability in different vegetation types than only with OVI and RVI. Also, the experimental results show that the proposed index not only has information on the vegetation greenness of the NDVI, but also has information on the canopy structure of the RVI. Based on this preliminary result, since the vegetation monitoring is more detailed, it could be possible in various application fields; this synergistic FVI will be further developed in the future.

RVI (Radar Vegetation Index) has shown some promise in the vegetation fields, but its relationship with MVI (Multispectral Vegetation Index) is not known in the context of various land covers. Presented herein is a comparative analysis of the MVI values derived from the LANDSAT-8 and RVI values originating from the RADARSAT-2 quad-polarimetric SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) data. Among the various multispectral vegetation indices, NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and SAVI (Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index) were used for comparison with RVI. Four land covers (urban, forest, water, and paddy field) were compared, and the patterns were investigated. The experiment results demonstrated that the RVI patterns of the four land covers are very similar to those of NDVI and SAVI. Thus, during bad weather conditions and at night, the RVI data could serve as an alternative to the MVI data in various application fields.

녹산국가산업단지는 부산광역시에서 서쪽의 연안매립지 형태의 공업단지이며, 이 지역은 1990년대 초반부터 약 10여년간에 걸쳐 산업단지가 조성되었다. 녹산국가산업단지는 연안 매립에 따른 연약지반으로 인하여 지반침하현상이 지속적으로 발생하고있으며, 이와 같은 이유로 2000년대 초반에는 침하계를 이용하여 지반침하현상을 관측하였다. 레이더 차분간섭도를 이용한 지표변위는 침하계 자료와의 비교 및 분석을 통하여 연구지역의 지반침하현상을 지속적으로 관측할 수 있으며, 실측 자료가 획득되지 못한 2000년대 중반과 후반의 지반침하현상도 측정할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있다. 이번 연구는 2002년부터 2003년까지 획득된 RADARSAT-1 F4 fine-bem모드와 2004년부터 2007년까지 획득된 ENVISAT IS-2모드를 이용하여 2000년대 초반부터 후반까지의 녹산국가산업단지의 지반침하현상을 관측하고 이를 분석하는데 있으며, 관측결과 약 4년동안 최대 33 cm의 침하량을 보이는 곳도 있었다. 이 결과는 C-band 레이더 위성자료의 차분간섭도가 국가 주요시설물 지역의 지반침하 측정에 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있는 중요한 사례가 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to estimate the spherical wave parameters that appears in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image acquired over the coast of Chukk, Micronesia. The retrieval of ocean wave parameters consists of two main stages: the first is to determine the dominant wavelengths by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) over 16 sub-image areas and the second is to estimate wave slopes and heights using dispersion relationship under various water wave conditions. It is assumed that the spherical waves are linear and progressive. These type of waves have the range and azimuth components traveling in radial directions. The azimuth travelling waves are more affected by the velocity bunching mechanism and it is difficult to estimate the wave parameters for these affected areas in SAR imagery. In order to compensate these effects, the velocity bunching ratio (VBR) based on modulation transfer function (MTF) was compared with the intensity ratio for neighbor area in the radial direction in order to assign the spherical wave properties for azimuthally travelling waves. Dispersion relation provides the good estimates for the wave heights for all the selected sub-image areas in the range of 1m to 2m. VBR based on MTF was found to be 0.78 at wave height of 1.36m, while the intensity-based VBR was 0.69 which corresponds to the height of 1.75m. It can be said that the velocity bunching accounts for azimuthally travelling spherical waves and the difference results from the sea-bottom effects.

여름철 우리나라 서해 연안을 관측한 SAR영상에서 다수의 내부파가 관측되고 있으며 이들은 동지나해에서 관측되는 내부파들에 비하여 소규모이며 상대적으로 많은 연구가 이루어지지 않고 있다. 이러한 내부파들은 여름철 표층 해수의 혼합을 발생시킴으로서 해양 생물학적으로 중요한 역할을 하며 대륙붕에서의 퇴적물 이동 및 음파의 전달에 있어서도 중요한 요소로서 서해의 물성 특성 연구에 있어서 반드시 고려되어야 한다. 내부파의 특성 분석을 위해서는 시공간적인 정보가 필요하며 이를 위해서는 현장 관측과 위성 관측이 동시에 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 2002년 5월 29일 현장 관측과 동시에 획득된 SAR영상을 분석하고 영상에 나타난 내부파와 동일한 내부파를 시간에 따른 수심별 등온선의 변화에서 분석 추적하였다.
