New data set released: SnowEx20 Grand Mesa IOP BSU 1 GHz Multi-polarization GPR

The SnowEx20 Grand Mesa IOP BSU 1 GHz Multi-polarization GPR, Version 1 data set, is now available at the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC). This data set contains snow water equivalent (SWE) and snow depth estimates derived from Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) measurements. GPR measurements were collected during the SnowEx 2020 Grand Mesa Intensive Observation Period (IOP) between 28 January and 04 February 2020. Snow depth was estimated from GPR two-way travel times and average radar velocity; SWE was estimated from snow depth and snow density. These data are derived from the SnowEx20 Grand Mesa IOP BSU 1 GHz Multi-polarization GPR Raw, Version 1 data set (DOI: 10.5067/CJNEM8UDNXKA)
