Clear-cut Mapping	Ultra-Fine beam mode	Provides increased accuracy of boundary placement
	HV or VH	Contrast improved versus HH or VV Using dual-pol (HH and HV) or (VV and VH) is optimal
	Quad-Pol	Distinguishing clear-cut from mature forest is viable
Fire-scar Mapping	HV or VH	Likely provides best potential for burn mapping since it is sensitive to structural damage incurred by forest canopy
Biomass	HV or VH	Effective monitoring of low biomass forests
