Estimating snow depth over Arctic sea ice from calibrated dual-frequency radar freeboards

<p>Snow depth on sea ice remains one of the largest uncertainties in sea ice thickness retrievals from satellite altimetry. Here we outline an approach for deriving snow depth that can be applied to any coincident freeboard measurements after calibration with independent observations of sn...
