THE EFFECT OF SURFACE FIRE IN SAVANNAH SYSTEMS IN THE KRUGER NATIONAL PARK (KNP), SOUTH AFRICA, ON THE BACKSCATTER OF C-BAND SENTINEL-1 IMAGES

The Effect of Surface Fire in Savannah Systems in the Kruger National Park (KNP), South Africa, on the Backscatter of C-Band Sentinel-1 Images

Savannahs are mixed woody-grass communities where low-intensity surface fires are common, affecting mostly the grass layer and rarely damaging trees.We investigated the effect of surface fires in a savannah system in the Kruger National Park, South Africa, on the backscatter of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) C-band Sentinel-1A images.Pre-fire and p
