What is C-Band SAR Data for Snow Monitoring about?

This study evaluates the use of C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data for monitoring snow water equivalent (SWE) in dry and shallow snow cover. The research involved multitemporal SAR data collection over a watershed in Southern Québec, complemented by extensive ground measurements to analyze snow and soil characteristics. Findings suggest that while shallow dry snow cover (SWE < 20 cm) is difficult to detect, a model linking backscattering power to snow physical parameters could facilitate SWE estimat
