On the Estimation of Snow Thickness Distributions Over Sea Ice Using the Thermal Dependence of Backscatter
Our understanding of snow distributions in the polar regions is severly restricted due to the heterogeneity, both in space and time, of this solid precipitate. Processes such as vapor and mass fluxes across the interface are, to a large extent, controlled by the presence and geophysical state of the...

| Summary: | Our understanding of snow distributions in the polar regions is severly restricted due to the heterogeneity, both in space and time, of this solid precipitate. Processes such as vapor and mass fluxes across the interface are, to a large extent, controlled by the presence and geophysical state of the snow cover on sea ice. |
