Effects of decimetre-scale surface roughness on L-band brightness temperature of sea ice

<p>Sea ice thickness is an essential climate variable. Current L-Band sea ice thickness retrieval methods do not account for sea ice surface roughness that is hypothesised to be not relevant to the process. This study attempts to validate this hypothesis that has not been tested yet. To test t...
