Antarctic Snowmelt Detected by Diurnal Variations of AMSR-E Brightness Temperature

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Antarctic surface snowmelt is sensitive to the polar climate. The ascending and descending passes of the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for Earth Observing System Sensor (AMSR-E) observed the Antarctic ice sheet in the afternoon (the warmest ...

Sea-Ice Production in Antarctic Coastal Polynyas Estimated From AMSR2 Data and Its Validation Using AMSR-E and SSM/I-SSMIS Data

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2017
Antarctic coastal polynyas are very high sea-ice production areas. The resultant large amount of brine rejection leads to the formation of dense water.

Satellite Retrieval of Microwave Land Surface Emissivity under Clear and Cloudy Skies in China Using Observations from AMSR-E and MODIS

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Microwave land surface emissivity (MLSE) is an important geophysical parameter to determine the microwave radiative transfer over land and has broad applications in satellite remote sensing of atmospheric parameters (e.g., precipitation, cloud properties)

Step-by-Step Validation of Antarctic ASI AMSR-E Sea-Ice Concentrations by MODIS and an Aerial Image

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2021
The lack of in situ data has always posed challenges to remote-sensing-data product validation. Herein, the products of sea-ice concentration (SIC) data derived using the arctic radiation and turbulence interaction study (ARTIST) sea ice (ASI) algorithm ...

An Empirical Algorithm for Retrieving Land Surface Temperature From AMSR‐E Data Considering the Comprehensive Effects of Environmental Variables

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2020
Microwave (MW) remote sensing has the potential to obtain all‐weather land surface temperature (LST) and serves as a complement to the thermal‐infrared (TIR) LST under cloudy sky conditions. However, the accuracy of MW LST is generally lower than that of

A Comparison of AMSR-E/Aqua Snow Products with in situ Observations and MODIS Snow Cover Products in the Mackenzie River Basin, Canada

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2010
Since 2002, global snow water equivalent (SWE) estimates have been generated using Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer (AMSR-E)/Aqua data. Accurate estimates of SWE are important to improve monitoring and managing of water resources in specific ...

The Effect of Three Different Data Fusion Approaches on the Quality of Soil Moisture Retrievals from Multiple Passive Microwave Sensors

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Long-term climate records of soil moisture are of increased importance to climate researchers. In this study, we aim to evaluate the quality of three different fusion approaches that combine soil moisture retrieval from multiple satellite sensors.

Multiyear variability of ice concentration in the White Sea according to satellite data

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2023
The objectives of this study were to analyze satellite data on the ice conditions in the White Sea available for the period 1979-2021 so that to identify statistically significant trends in closeness of ice during that period, and to establish spatial ...
