The semi-empirical water cloud model can be implemented to derive spatial values of biophysical parameters from remotely sensed radar data for use throughout different disciplines of physical geography. The water cloud model formulation and development are detailed in this review paper, incorporating the major advances and publications related to the model.

Key Words: radar backscatter • semi-empirical • water cloud model
