  1. Modèle d'architecture d'arbre: Atelier de Modélisation de l'Architecture des Plantes, CIRAD - analyse de l'architecture de la plante. - calibration par site à partir de mesures sur le terrain. - simulations -> maquettes (ensemble de cylindres). Apport: * Description détaillée des diffuseurs. * Prise en compte de la variabilité verticale. Âge (année)

  2. Interface AMAP/RT (AMAP2SAR) Inputs of the e.m models • Scatterers density (per layer) • Geometric description • Surface roughness • Moisture (ground, vegetation) • Acquisition parameters (f,p,i) EM MODELS (CESBIO) AMAP MODEL (Cirad) • Model outputs • backscatter values • scattering mechanisms • contribution of scatterers

  3. Good agreement Penetration depth seems to be of several meters Comparison RT-3D modelling and X-band HUTSCAT measurements
