Estimating Snow Water Equivalent with Backscattering at X and Ku Band Based on Absorption Loss

Estimating Snow Water Equivalent with Backscattering at X and Ku Band Based on Absorption Loss

Snow water equivalent (SWE) is a key parameter in the Earth’s energy budget and water cycle. It has been demonstrated that SWE can be retrieved using active microwave remote sensing from space. This necessitates the development of forward models that are capable of simulating the interactions of mic...
