TL;DR: State-of-the-art simulations models were used to evaluate the utility of C-, L- and P-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors within an integrated Earth-Observation monitoring system for beech, oak and coniferous forests in Romania, showing differentiated sensitivity to vegetation water content, leaf area index, and forest disturbance depending on SAR wavelength and forest structure.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the utility of Sentinel-1/2 time-series for monitoring selective logging in temperate forests, and suggested that monitoring selectively logging using Sentinel 1/2 imagery is challenging due to a range of factors, including logging time and duration, saturation of C-band wavelength, and relatively small changes in canopy cover that cannot be reliably picked up by the optical sensor.
