Precipitation regimes over central Greenland inferred from 5 years of ICECAPS observations
A novel method for classifying Arctic precipitation using ground based remote sensors is presented. Using differences in the spectral variation of microwave absorption and scattering properties of cloud liquid water and ice, this method can distinguish between different types of snowfall events...
