title: [Analysis of Polarization Characteristics of Wheat and Maize Crops Using Land-Based Remote Sensing Measurements].
abstract: The paper presents analysis of a study of the polarized component of the reflectance factor (Rq) and the degree of polarization (P) of wheat and maize crops depending on the wavelength. Registration of polarization characteristics was carried out in the field from the elevated work platform at heights of 10 to 18 m in June and July. Measurements were performed using a double-beam spectrophotometer with a polarized light filter attachment, within the spectral range from 400 to 820-nm. The viewing angle was no greater than 20 degree with respect to the nadir. The reflection spectra of wheat and maize crops obtained using a polarizer adjusted to transmit the maximum and minimum amounts of light (R(max) and R(min)) were studied. Based on these reflection spectra polarization characteristics, which. differ in the visible and infrared spectral region, were determined and analyzed.
