Summary: | Climate has been changing dramatically over the past several decades. Terrestrial snow and polar ice sheets have been studied intensively as indicators of climate change. The following research supports two major objectives. The first objective is to use a new microwave remote sensing technique, P-band GNSS-SAR interferometry, to characterize the Snow Water Equivalent of Terrestrial. The second objective is to assist in estimating polar ice sheet mass balance using active and passive microwave remote sensing data. To support the GNSS-SAR remote sensing of terrestrial snow, my research focused on simulating the P-band near specular bistatic scattering coefficients of mountainous areas. Given that reliable measurement of the near specular scattering coefficients of land surface in the P-band Signal of Opportunity concept will only be available in the future, simulation work is currently the only way to understand the near specular bistatic scattering in the P-band. The bistatic scattering coefficient of ... |
