Abstract
The most important factor affecting the microwave properties of a snowcover is the liquid water content (snow wetness). An FM-CW (26.5-40-GHz) radar has been used to investigate the influence of snow wetness on the magnitude of radar backscatter from a snowcover. The radar backscatter measurements from a wet snowcover on a windy day suggest that evaporative cooling due to the wind may reduce the amount of liquid water at the snowcover surface. >
