E.  aA comparative analysis on the use of optical and SAR data for monitoring the Brazilian Cerrado.  c2001  a8 p.  aThe wet season synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and Landsat/Thematic Mapper (TM) vegetation indices from the Brasilia National Park were obtained in order to analyze their potential for Cerrado land cover monitoring. The comparison between the normalized SAR backscattering coefficients and the Normalized Difference Vegetation index (NDVI) as well as the new Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) showed a good discrimination capability of grassland/shrubland/woodland and woodland covers of the Brasilian Cerrado.  amonitoring  aremote sensing  avegetation  aCerrado  aRadar  aSensoriamento Remoto  aVegetação  aMonitoramento1 aFERREIRA, L.
