Frequency and distribution of winter melt events from passive microwave satellite data in the pan-Arctic, 1988–2013
This study presents an algorithm for detecting winter melt events in seasonal snow cover based on temporal variations in the brightness temperature difference between 19 and 37 GHz from satellite passive microwave measurements. An advantage of the passive microwave approach is that it is based on th...
