This paper examines the information content of SAR data with respect to the retrieval of two categories of forest information of interest, for which radar data play a major role compared to ground measurements and other remote sensing methods. Those are forest vertical structure and forest biomass. The physical background will be discussed in terms of the relationships between the forest parameters and the SAR measurements at different polarisations, incidence angles and frequencies (X, C, L, P and VHF bands). This will include results from experiments carried out to investigate these relations, and the development of modelling approaches to interpret and extend the observations. Illustrations with spaceborne SAR data (ERS, ERS tandem InSAR, JERS, RADARSAT), and airborne data (AIRSAR, ESAR, CARABAS, HUTSCAT) will be presented.
