In recent years SAR Polarimetry has become a valuable tool in space-borne SAR based sea ice analysis. This work compares the polarimetric backscatter behavior of sea ice in space-borne X-band C-band and L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery. Two sets of spatially and temporally near coincident fully polarimetric acquisitions from the TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X, RADARSAT-2 and ALOS-2 satellites are...
L-band radiometers are used to retrieve sea surface salinity (SSS) and study the cryosphere. At high latitudes, it is frequent that both sea ice and water are present in the sensor's field of view. Accurately characterizing the scene is crucial for oceanographic and cryospheric applications. We present a model to derive the ice fraction affecting observations by the Aquarius and SMAP radiometers and...
