1 ub-surface glacial structure over Nordaustlandet using multi-frequency Pol-InAR Jayanti harma, Irena Hajnsek, Kostas Papathanassiou DLR (German Aerospace Center),.6.8
2 Introduction: Pol-InAR over Land Ice Motivation: A greater understanding of the properties of glaciers/ice sheets including their topography, velocities, melting/accumulation rates, densities and internal structure (related to rate of extinction) AR (synthetic aperture radar) sensors particularly well-suited for cryospheric measurements (polar areas dark for much of the year, high resolution & coverage) polarimetry yields information regarding scattering mechanisms (volume+surface scattering), interferometry regarding their distribution with height Goal: For the first-time, use Pol-InAR observables to estimate land ice extinctions lide
3 Airborne Polarimetric AR Interferometry (Pol-InAR) HH HV VH VV baseline HH HV VH VV AR: synthetic aperture radar enables high resolution in the along-track line-of-flight direction Polarimetry: enables the separation of different scattering mechanisms within a resolution cell Interferometry: sensitive to the height at which scattering occurs Pol-InAR: combined, sensitive to the vertical distribution of scattering mechanisms lide 3

8 Isolation of the Ice Volume Goal: In order to estimate extinction of the ice volume, necessary to separate ground and volume contributions Method: Estimate ground-to-volume scattering ratios (m) through decomposition of polarimetric covariance [C] matrix (second-order statistics) = VH VV HH HV [ C] = HH * HH * HH VV HV HH HV * HV * HV VV HH HV VV * VV * VV Model elements of the [C] matrix using the Freeman 3-component decomposition Freeman, 998.

13 Ground-to-volume ratios, ubset L-band P-band m HH P HH P VV = mvv = mhv P P V HH V VV = As expected, general trend of decreasing m with θ at both freqs m values higher for P-band than for L-band: perhaps related to significantly less volume backscatter (relative size scatterers with respect to wavelength) lide 3
