Abstract
Development of reliable models for microwave emission and scattering from terrain, ie, vegetation, snow, forest, is among the most important problems of microwave remote sensing. Current investigations in this field are mainly directed to the modeling of microwave scattering from plant elements and vegetation as a whole and modeling of the effective dielectric permittivity of natural media. In this contribution a new approach is discussed for modeling plant elements of strip shape where the scattering operator is expanded into multiple scattering series. The results obtained are in good agreement with the results provided by known methods and with the experimental data. -Authors
