The Diurnal Variation of L-Band Polarization Index in the U.S. Corn Belt Is Related to Plant Water Stress by Richard Cirone, Brian K. Hornbuckle

“…Since soil emission is stronger at V-pol than H-pol and vegetation attenuates this polarized soil signal primarily because of liquid water stored in vegetation tissue, a lower PI will be indicative of more water in vegetation if vegetation emits a mostly unpolarized signal and changes in soil moisture within the emitting depth are small (like during periods of drought) or accommodated by averaging over long periods. …”
