TerraSAR-X time series fill a gap in spaceborne snowmelt monitoring of small Arctic catchments : a case study on Qikiqtaruk (Herschel Island), Canada

The timing of snowmelt is an important turning point in the seasonal cycle of small Arctic catchments. The TerraSAR-X (TSX) satellite mission is a synthetic aperture radar system (SAR) with high potential to measure the high spatiotemporal variability of snow cover extent (SCE) and fractional snow c...
