Estimating Meltwater Drainage Onset Timing and Duration of Landfast Ice in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago Using AMSR-E Passive Microwave Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Meltwater drainage onset (DO) timing and drainage duration (DD) related to snowmelt-water redistribution are both important for understanding not only the Arctic energy and heat budgets but also the salt/heat balance of the mixed layer in the ocean and ...

Assessment of the NASA AMSR-E SWE Product

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2010
Since the launch of the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) in 1978, several studies have demonstrated the capability of spaceborne passive microwave sensors for mapping global snow water equivalent (SWE). Currently, SWE values are estimated operationally from microwave brightness temperatures measured by the Advanced Microwave Scanning ...
