Retrieval of sea ice thickness using global navigation satellite system reflected signals
The aim of this paper is to develop a model which can be used to retrieve sea ice thickness based on global navigation satellite system reflected signals at a shore-based platform. First, the method calculates the intensity ratio of the reflected signal and the direct signal of the global navigation...
