Overview of Ground-Based Radar Measurements of Snow-Covered Sea-Ice Led During the 2022 CIRFA Arctic Cruise

International audience This paper presents some results obtained during the 2022 CIRFA arctic cruise concerning the measurements of the radar response of different types of sea-ice using a high-resolution Ground-Based radar system operating at C band. This MIMO device was able to directly measure to...

Description
Summary:International audience This paper presents some results obtained during the 2022 CIRFA arctic cruise concerning the measurements of the radar response of different types of sea-ice using a high-resolution Ground-Based radar system operating at C band. This MIMO device was able to directly measure tomograms, or slices of reflectivity in the elevation-ground plane, allowing to quantitatively appreciate the penetration of radar waves into sea-ice types having complex geometrical features, and to assess the dominant contributions measured by radar devices at C band.
