Abstract
Employing the model of a layer of continuous random medium with an und erlying rough surface, the bistatic scattering and backscattering coef ficients are calculated, By using the reciprocity, the emissivity is t hen calculated. Numerical results simulate the temporal variations of complementary backscattering and emissivity of the vegetation canopies , Theoretical results are compared with the measurements of active and passive remote sensing of several vegetation canopies, The correlated characteristics of microwave active and passive remote sensing are di scussed.
