Scattering power components extracted from polarimetric SAR data have proven invaluable in characterizing diverse land cover targets. However, methods to derive the scattering powers are limited to full-polarimetric SAR data. This study introduces a novel approach to obtain scattering power components from dual-pol SLC and GRD SAR data. We assess the scattering power components observed over various land covers with Sentinel-1 image acquired over Buenos Aires, Argentina; Chennai, India; and Oran, Algeria. The proportion of the scattering powers varies depending upon the target's physical and geometrical properties, which helps in their improved characterization.
