             abstract = "The Pantanal is a wetland ecosystem with a seasonal cycle of 
                         flooding and drydown. This creates a number of landscapes that are 
                         heterogeneous spatially and temporally. These include freshwater 
                         and saline lakes, periodically inundated grasslands and forested 
                         sections that are highly heterogeneous in spatial arrangement and 
                         in response to inundation. This region is well suited to perform 
                         spatio-temporal analysis of land cover dynamics from SAR image 
                         time series, since land cover types can exhibit great contrasts in 
                         backscattering. In this study, we use seven ERS-1 SAR images from 
                         December 1992 to November 1993. This period includes both seasonal 
                         inundation followed by a significant climatic drought that 
                         transformed the spatial structure of backscattering across the 
                         landscape. Lacunarity analysis of the SAR image series captures 
                         the spatio-temporal rearranging and illustrates how complex land 
                         cover change can be quantified within a predictive framework.",
