Modeling and Measurement of C-Band Radar Backscatter From Snow-Covered First-Year Sea Ice

In this paper, we present model and measurement results for C-band HH and VV normalized radar cross-sections (NRCS) from winter snow-covered first-year sea ice with average snow thicknesses of 16, 4, and 3 cm. The brine content in snow pack was low in all three case studies, which is typical for col...
