Atmospheric Limitations to Repeat-Track Radar Interferometry

In a recent mission, the Shuttle Imaging Radar (SIR-C) satellite devoted three days to repeat-track interferometry. The data was analyzed from a test site in the Mojave desert of California. Although good topography was obtained, most of the error was caused by turbulent water vapor in the lower atmosphere. Analysis of the effects of water vapor on multiple-track interferometry is given.
