L‐Band InSAR Snow Water Equivalent Retrieval Uncertainty Increases With Forest Cover Fraction
Abstract There is a pressing need for global monitoring of snow water equivalent (SWE) at high spatiotemporal resolution, and L‐band (1–2 GHz) interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) holds promise. However, the technique has not seen extensive evaluation in forests.

An optimised scattering power decomposition model is proposed which comprises surface, double‐bounce, oriented dipole and volume scattering components. The authors derive the optimised four‐component decomposition model from mathematical and theoretical perspectives, and verify the rationality of the optimised decomposition model using large amounts of
