The importance of particle size distribution and internal structure for triple-frequency radar retrievals of the morphology of snow
<p>The accurate representation of ice particles is essential for both remotely sensed estimates of clouds and precipitation and numerical models of the atmosphere. As it is typical in radar retrievals to assume that all snow is composed of aggregate snowflakes, both denser rimed snow and the m...
