Physical-Statistical Retrieval of SWE and Snow Depth in Forested Areas from Airborne X And Ku-Band 1 SAR Measurements 2

Temporal and Spatial Associations of L-Band Fully Polarimetric SAR Metrics with Soil Moisture over a Wet Volcanic Ash Soil Field

L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) offers repeated observations of soil moisture, but its ability to track field-averaged changes and within-field differences under wet conditions requires separate assessment. We compared 21 fully polarimetric ALOS-2/PALSAR-2 acquisitions with time-domain reflectometry (TDR) observa...

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) for Monitoring Seasonal Snow

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) offers a potential pathway for measuring seasonal snow water equivalent (SWE) and snow depth at spatial and temporal scales needed for basin‐scale hydrology. First proposed for seasonal snow more than 25 years ago, InSAR uses repeat‐pass radar phase differences to estima...

Comparing 3 m resolution snow cover downscaled from MODIS, VIIRS, and HLS using commercial satellite imagery and terrain information

Characterizing Snow Depth and Ice Surface Elevation on Subarctic Lakes Using a Multi-Sensor Approach

Snow on lake ice is highly heterogeneous, which influences ice formation and growth as snow acts as an effective thermal insulator. Despite its significance, spatially resolved snow depth measurements remain challenging, as existing methods are typically limited to point observations. This study presents a multi-sensor...

A long-term wintertime snow depth dataset on Arctic sea ice (1978-2025) derived from multisource passive microwave radiometer data

Integrating Satellite Data with Ground-Based Low-Cost Sensors for Hourly Fine-Scale Land Surface Temperature Mapping: A Case Study in Bentley, Western Australia

Climate change and rapid urbanisation are intensifying the urban heat island effect, increasing thermal stress, degrading air quality, and leading to rising energy demand. Monitoring neighbourhood-scale heat requires Land Surface Temperature (LST) observations at fine spatial and temporal resolutions, yet satellite the...
