Online resources: Summary: Reports on a project which aims to examine the usefulness of radar remote sensing as a tool to map and quantify the amount of carbon stored in forests. This offers the possibility for a continuous, non-destructive and relatively inexpensive method for measuring and monitoring vegetation over wide areas. Identifies specific technical issues with the technique and attempts to draw conclusions so that the body of research in the area can be taken forward.
