Automatic detection of subglacial lakes in radar sounder data acquired in Antarctica

AM Ilisei, M Khodadadzadeh… - Image and Signal …, 2017 - spiedigitallibrary.org
Subglacial lakes decouple the ice sheet from the underlying bedrock, thus facilitating the
sliding of the ice masses towards the borders of the continents, consequently raising the sea …

Advanced methods for simulation-based performance assessment and analysis of radar sounder data

E Donini - 2021 - iris.unitn.it
Abstract Radar Sounders (RSs) are active sensors that transmit in the nadir electromagnetic
(EM) waves with a low frequency in the range of High-Frequency and Very-High-Frequency …

Advanced methods for simulation and performance analysis of planetary radar sounder data

S Thakur - 2020 - iris.unitn.it
Radar sounders (RS) are low frequency remote sensing instruments that profile the shallow
