Backscatter Characteristics of Snow Avalanches for Mapping With Local Resolution Weighting

Snow avalanches cause a sudden change of snow properties making them detectable with synthetic aperture radar (SAR). However, steep alpine terrain combined with the slant view geometry of SAR sensors complicates detection: the avalanche brightness depends on the incidence angle and the observed area...
