Recent changes in the microwave scattering properties of the Antarctic ice sheet

Time series, satellite microwave data are used to monitor and quantify changes in the scattering properties of the Antarctic ice sheet. Daily ERS scatterometer (EScat) and Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) image data, acquired since 1992, are analyzed to understand the seasonal and interannual...

Description
Summary:Time series, satellite microwave data are used to monitor and quantify changes in the scattering properties of the Antarctic ice sheet. Daily ERS scatterometer (EScat) and Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) image data, acquired since 1992, are analyzed to understand the seasonal and interannual changes over the ice sheet.
