1996 isn't listed as being available online (at least not at the journals current host Ingenta).

Interlibrary loan is probably your best option.

cheers guys. I'm no ice toucher, its just a good paper giving the derivations of equations of synthetic apperture radar interferometric systems (dunno if that makes sense but it sounds about right), so having a gander for that. Actuall "application" is measuring difference in a volcano (not real data, just an excercise).

shiiiiiiiit, just looked on the library search again, and there is a paper journal, im just so used to looking online i didnt see the mini link below. warra tool.

cheerrs again :2thumbsup:

Indeed you can find this out by searching for the paper you are after on https://scholar.google.co.uk/ it often returns more than one hit.

Note also that the licensing of libraries is such that you can download copies of papers for personal use.  Distributing to others as you have requested is almost invariably breaking the terms and conditions and has the potential to get the person who helps you out by providing a PDF in trouble.

You might also want to investigate whether SCONUL Access is of use in finding articles Sheffield University Library do not have access to.

Ta, I had tried scholar.  I assumed researchgate was just a hang out for researchers and didn't realise you could download papers, I'd been ignoring emails from them for a while about confirming authorship.  Turns out you can print the paper without signing up.

Will have a closer look at SCONUL Access it seems interesting and might be useful at some point

Reearchgate is a bit parasitic IMHO - but you can switch off all the discussion/chat email notication bollocks and it is really easy to upload PDF's of your papers - that other RG members can then download. I'm in it for just that part - as its a easy hit to get some more people reading your own stuff etc..

Its probably owned by some satanic publisher etc...
