These two figures are the images of the center in Mardan, Pakistan on May 27, 2006 and August 15, 2006. In the yellow circle, the radar backscattering on August 15 is stronger than that on May 27. Since the radar reflection depends on the moisture of material, it is considered that the water content of the soil in this area increases due to the flood.
