Abstract:

In this study, we evaluate the capability of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technique for the monitoring wetland water level changes in the Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. This province is one of the richest Canadian provinces in terms of wetland expanse, yet these productive habitats remain poorly understood in this area. The InSAR technique is proven to be efficient in monitoring solid earth changes (e.g., earthquake and landslide). However, the use of such a technique for monitoring water level changes is underdeveloped and limited to particular pilot sites. In this paper, we use 5 SLC TerraSAR-X descending track and analyze them using repeat-pass SAR interferometry technique to monitor water level fluctuations of flooded vegetation.
