4 pi multiplicado por el cuadrado de la presión acústica reverberada multiplicada por el cuadrado de la distancia desde el centro acústico del dispersor, dividido por el cuadrado de la presión acústica incidente en los dispersores en el volumen establecido. El ángulo de incidencia se debe indicar, y también el ángulo de dispersión, si es diferente del regresivo. 1, record 1, Spanish, - secci%C3%B3n%20transversal%20de%20reverberaci%C3%B3n

Volume scattering results from many scattering events within a homogeneous media. The backscattered signal is a function of: - Density of the media [;] - Geometry of scattering elements [;] - Dielectric properties of elements. Examples of volume scattering include dense vegetation cover and dry snow. 3, record 2, English, - volume%20scattering

L'augmentation de la diffusion multiple associée à des champs travaillés de surface irrégulière conduit à la dépolarisation des hyperfréquences et à une rétrodiffusion à polarisation croisée élevée. Lorsque le couvert de résidus se trouve dans les champs, l'augmentation de la diffusion volumétrique a un effet semblable et conduit aussi à des réponses supérieures en polarisation croisée. 3, record 2, French, - diffusion%20volum%C3%A9trique
