Vertical profile of the forest

Vertical profile of the forest
The test area near Traunstein. This image shows an example of a vertical profile of radar backscatter in this forest. The backscatter is scaled in shades of green, from dark green (low backscatter) to white (high backscatter). The solid lines represent the heights of the forest floor and crown, determined by lidar measurements.
