The Tibetan Plateau is the highest plateau. And snow in covered at Tibetan Plateau can exert have important influence on the study of climate change and hydrological cycle. In this paper, we found that the brightness temperature of horizontal polarization at Nam Cu Lake is very low, which is about 170K at 18.7 GHz, by the analysis of the time series of the brightness temperature observed by AMSR-E...
Simulation of brightness temperature and related snow parameters is essential to understand the microwave emission property and its evolution with change of the snow-soil system status. In this paper, a typical thin snow pack on North China Plain is measured on Nov 13–16th, 2009 at Luancheng test site HUT (Helsinki University of Technology) wet snow emission model is used to predict the brightness...
In this work we chose the Helsinki University of Technology (HUT) snow emission model to character the emission behavior for a snowpack-ice-water system with the ground microwave radiometer observation. This snow and lake ice surveys was conducted in Songhua River, Songyuan city, Jilin Province, on Jan. 21- 22, 2010. Compared to the ground measurements over shallow snow-covered lake ice surface, the...
The current algorithms of retrieval of snow water equivalence (SWE) using passive microwave remote sensing is based on the linear brightness temperature difference. In the mountain areas, the topography affects the microwave signal received by the microwave radiometer by ways of changing the elevation and the radiation between the terrains. Accordingly it can exert some certain influences on the result...
