In this paper, a radar scattering model for forest canopies has been developed based on an empirical rough surface scattering model and the radiative transfer theory. Leaves in the forest canopy are modeled by rectangular resistive sheets, brunches and trunks are modeled by cylinder, which sizes and orientations are randomly distributed. The scattering model has been verified with the measurement data of JPL/AirSAR system.
