Title
Signature of clouds over Antarctic sea ice detected by the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager
Abstract
A method to detect the cloud signature (mainly the cloud liquid water) over the sea ice-covered Weddell Sea in the Austral summer season is presented. By using the polarization differences at the two high frequency channels (i.e., 37 and 85 GHz) of the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I), a new quantity called R-factor is defined. Using the R-factor, the atmospheric signal can be easily separa...
