Overview
This data set contains airborne microwave brightness temperature observations from the Goddard Space Flight Center SWESARR (Snow
Water Equivalent Synthetic Aperture Radar and Radiometer) instrument during the winter (10-12 February 2020) NASA SnowEx 2020 campaign at Grand Mesa, CO.
Observations were made at three frequencies (10.65, 18.7, and 36.5 GHz; referred to as X, K, and Ka bands, respectively), at horizontal polarization with a nominal 45-degree look angle.
