100 m Sentinel-1 12-day median coherence mosaic from summer 2019, highlighting dune activity, vegetation dynamics, and seasonal surface changes; a 15 m version from 2021 is also available. && <\/SPAN><\/P>

We have included a 100 m resolution mosaic of Sentinel-1 12-daily median coherence image. This mosaic was generated from 12 daily pairs of all the Sentinel-1 images acquired over the study area in the summer (June-August) of 2019. The source data is accessible at: https://asf.alaska.edu/datasets/derived/global-seasonal-sentinel-1-interferometric-coherence-and-backscatter-dataset/. Radar coherence is a measure that is sensitive to surface changes (dunes activity, vegetation, construction). The dunes have low coherence values and appear in dark shades in the provided coherence image. This dataset offers a unique perspective on the slower, cumulative changes affecting dune landscapes by providing median coherence measurements at 12-day repeat intervals, specifically during the summer months. It is invaluable for studying the broader patterns of dune migration, seasonal variations in sand deposition, and the long-term impacts of climate change on desertification processes.<\/SPAN><\/P>
