We compare in-situ water volume measurements of mineral oil emulsion sampled from an oil slick in Santa Barbara, California, to acquisitions of airborne UAVSAR data acquired in June 2022. Estimating the water-to-oil fraction using the UAVSAR imagery, we find that low SNR in the co- and cross-polarimetric channels limits this capability above a certain oil-to-water volumetric threshold. Higher SNR ...
