THIN ICE AREA EXTRACTION IN THE SEA OF OKHOTSK FROM GCOM-W1/AMSR2 DATA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016 Passive microwave radiometers on-board satellites can penetrate clouds and can monitor the global sea ice distribution on daily basis. The authors have developed an algorithm to extract thin ice area in the Sea of Okhotsk from the passive microwave ...

Microwave Emissivity of Typical Vegetated Land Types Based on AMSR2
Remote Sensing, 2022 To investigate the microwave radiation characteristics of different vegetation types, the “pure pixels” of 12 typical vegetated land types were selected and corresponding emissivity was retrieved under clear sky based on L1C AMSR2 observed brightness temperatures (TBs). According to the retrieved values for the 12 types, the spectral features in summer
