Antarctic ice-sheet near-surface snowmelt detection based on the synergy of SSM/I data and QuikSCAT data

Microwave radiometer SSM/I data and scatterometer QuikSCAT data have been widely used for the ice-sheet near-surface snowmelt detection based on their sensitivity to liquid water present in snow. In order to improve the Antarctic ice-sheet near-surface snowmelt detection accuracy, a new Antarctic ic...
