MARC recordSome observations of established snow cover on saline ice and their relevance to microwave remote sensing / A.W. Lohanick.
| Title: | Some observations of established snow cover on saline ice and their relevance to microwave remote sensing / A.W. Lohanick. |
| Author(s): | Lohanick, A. W. |
| Date: | 1990. |
| In: | CRREL Monograph. (1990.), Vol. 90-1 (1990) |
| Abstract: | Presents data showing effects of established ("old") snow covers on multiyear ice on brightness temperature at 33.6 GHz. Shows bottom layer of snow can be main contributor to brightness temperature change. Speculates that this is due to roughening of snow/ice interface by wicking of salt from ice into snow. This results in roughened dielectric surface which increases transmission coefficient for radiation from underlying ice. |
