Passive Microwave Remote Sensing of Snowpacks
PROCEEDINGS OF HYDRAULIC ENGINEERING, 1991 Both theory and experiment in passive microwave remote sensing of snow have been studied. Synchronizing the airborne experiments using Microwave Scanning Radiometer (MSR) with the passing days of Marine Observation Satellite 1 (MOS-1), ground truth data were obtained around Asahikawa of Hokkaido during February 1988.
