Antarctic snow accumulation mapped using polarization of 4.3-cm wavelength microwave emission

Different parts of Antarctica receive different amounts of snowfall each year. In this paper we map the variations of the mean annual snow accumulation across the ice sheet. We also quantify the uncertainty in our estimates more objectively than has been possible for earlier maps. The new map is pro...
