Abstract
The physiological activity of a forest stand is influenced by the vitality and health status of the trees. We assume that a direct relationship exists between the variations of the tree water status and the canopy density, stand vitality and forest decline. Since the dielectric constant of water is much higher than of other tree constituents, microwave signatures contrain direct information on the water status of forest canopies.
