Summary:Monitoring the environment is most urgent and is receiving more attention from scientists worldwide. Various means can be used; a main role, however, is played by radar. Efficient use of radar for receiving authentic volumetric information of investigated objects is one of the major issues for radar experts, previously involved in the field of radio location. The scope of the subject in this monograph is to provide a review of available polarimetric radar techniques for solving practical inverse problems in remote sensing of various types of scatterers on the earth’s surface (vegetation, ocean, terrain, etc.)
