Melt Season Arctic Sea Ice Type Separability Using Fully and Compact Polarimetric C- and L-Band Synthetic Aperture Radar ...
Sea ice mapping using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in the melt season poses challenges, due to wet snow and melt ponds complicating sea ice type separability. To address this, we analyzed fully polarimetric (FP) and simulated compact polarimetric (CP) C- (RADARSAT-2) and L- (ALOS-2 PALSAR-2) band...
