Remote Sensing, 2019 Snow depth on sea ice is a major constituent of the marine cryosphere. It is a key parameter for the derivation of sea-ice thickness from satellite altimetry. One way to retrieve the basin-scale snow depth on sea ice is by satellite microwave radiometry.

THIN ICE AREA EXTRACTION IN THE SEASONAL SEA ICE ZONES OF THE NORTHERN HEMISPHERE USING ASMR2 DATA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019 Sea ice has an important role of reflecting the solar radiation back into space. In addition, the heat flux of ice in thin ice areas is strongly affected by the ice thickness difference. Therefore, ice thickness is one of the most important parameters of

Wintertime Emissivities of the Arctic Sea Ice Types at the AMSR2 Frequencies
Remote Sensing, 2022 The surface effective emissivities of Arctic sea ice are calculated using Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) measurements. These emissivities are analyzed for stable winter conditions during the months of January–May and November and ...

Retrieving Snow Depth Information From AMSR2 Data for Qinghai–Tibet Plateau
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020 Passive microwave data have been extensively used for snow depth (SD) inversion, but their accuracy has large error in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP). Thus, there is still room for improvement in regional SD inversion.
