- W4386952202 abstract "Surface-based Ku-band radar altimetry investigations indicate the radar signal is typically backscattered from well above the snow-sea ice interface. However, this would induce a bias in satellite altimeter sea ice thickness retrievals not reflected by buoy validation. Our study presents a mechanism to potentially explain this paradox: probabilistic quasi-specular radar scattering from the snow-ice interface. We introduce the theory for this mechanism before identifying it in airborne Ku-band radar observations collected over landfast first year Arctic sea ice near Eureka, Canada, in spring 2016. Based on SAR data, this study area likely represents level first year sea ice across the Arctic. Radar backscatter from the snow and ice interfaces were estimated by co-aligning laser scanner and radar observations with <italic xmlns:mml=http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML xmlns:xlink=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink>in situ</i> measurements. On average, 4-5 times more radar power was scattered from the snow-ice than the air-snow interface over first-year ice. However, return power varied by up to 20 dB between consecutive radar echoes, particularly from the snow-ice interface, depending on local slope and roughness. Measured laser-radar snow depths were more accurate when radar returns were specular, but there was no systematic bias between airborne and in situ snow depths. The probability and strength of quasi-specular returns depend on the measuring height above and slope distribution of sea ice, so these findings have implications for satellite altimetry snow depth and freeboard estimates. This mechanism could explain the apparent differences in Ku-band radar penetration into snow on sea ice when observed from the range of a surface-, airborne- or satellite-based sensor." @default.
