A Microwave Frequency Range Experiment for the Measurement of Snow Density and Liquid Water Content

This article presents a new nondestructive characterization system for the extraction of both snow density and liquid water content (LWC). The experiment primarily measures the relative complex permittivity of snow (<inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\overline {{{\bold...
