Active and Passive Microwave Remote Sensing of Priestley Glacier, Antarctica
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote SensingAirborne 0.5-2 GHz brightness temperatures were collected along a transect of the Priestley Glacier, Northern Victoria Land, Antarctica that coincides with previously acquired 189-199 MHz depth sounding radar data from NASA's Operation IceBridge (OIB).

Theory and experiment for passive microwave remote sensing of snowpacks
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1979Both the theory and experiment for the passive remote sensing of snow with microwave radiometers have been studied. We account for volume scattering effects of snow by incorporating Mie scattering theory into a radiative transfer model. The theory is applied to the interpretation of experimental data obtained from various snow measurements.

Foam and Roughness Effects on Passive Microwave Remote Sensing of the Ocean
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2012Whitecaps and surface roughness are the two main components of the wind-induced microwave emissivity change of the ocean surface. The resulting difference of the received brightness temperature from that of a flat foamless sea surface at the same sea surface temperature and salinity is used for ocean surface wind vector retrieval using passive ...

On the use of passive microwave remote sensing by airborne platforms
2015 16th International Radar Symposium (IRS), 2015The steady increase of air traffic and the operation of aircraft in almost all environmental conditions demand for advanced sensor concepts for safe and efficient flight service. Furthermore the bird's perspective on the Earth allows manifold use of airborne imaging for civilian and military Earth observation.

Passive Microwave Remote Sensing for Land Applications
2008Land applications, in particular soil moisture retrieval, have been ham- pered by the lack of low frequency passive microwave observations and the coarse spatial resolution of existing sensors. The next decade could see several improved operational and exploratory missions using new technologies as well as innovative disaggregation and data fusion ...

Remote Sensing of the Ocean and Atmosphere with Passive Microwave Measurements
1981The effectiveness of sea surface and atmospheric parameter determination with the spectral method of microwave radiometry is analyzed. The wavelength ranges which provide the best accuracy in sea surface temperature, salinity, wind speed over the surface, integral water vapor content of the atmosphere, and total liquid water content in clouds are ...
