Sources of backscatter at 5.3GHz from a superimposed ice and firn area revealed by multi-frequency GPR and cores

ABSTRACT. We investigate the major sources of backscatter at 5.3GHz, within the superimposed ice and firn areas of a polythermal glacier. Two ground-penetrating radar systems, an 800MHz impulse system and a polarimetric 5.3GHz frequency-modulated continuous-wave system, are used to acquire along-gla...
