Application of radar polarimetry techniques for retrieval snow and rain characteristics in remote sensing

The presence of snow cover has significant impacts on the both global and regional climate and water balance on earth. The accurate estimation of snow cover area can be used for forecasting runoff due to snow melt and output of hydroelectric power. With development of remote sensing techniques at di...
