					| Scope | 
					
						Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is one of important observation tools for solid-earth science. ALOS follow-on satellite "ALOS-2" is scheduled to be launched in FY2013, which will open next era of SAR observation. In this session, SAR-based studies (analysis, theory, and application) are widely welcomed, and the advanced researches/techniques and the problems SAR users face are discussed.
