摘要

This letter introduces an alternative strategy for wet snow detection using multitemporal synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. The proposed change detection method is primarily based on the comparison between two X-band SAR images acquired during the accumulation (winter) and melting (spring) seasons, in the French Alps. The new decision criterion relies on the local intensity statistics of the SAR images by considering the backscattering ratio as a stochastic process: the probability that “the intensity ratio fits into the predetermined range of values” is larger than a defined confidence level. Both the conducted snow backscattering simulations and the state-of-the-art measurements indicate more complex relation between the backscattering properties of the two snow types, with respect to the conventional assumption of the augmented electromagnetic absorption associated to the wet snow. Therefore, rather than adopting the standard hypothesis, we analyze the wet/dry snow backscattering ratio as a function of the local incidence angle (LIA). After employing the multilayer snow backscattering simulator, calibrated with scatterometer measurements in C-band, we modify, to some extent, the range of ratio values indicating the presence of the wet snow, by including positive ratio values for lower LIA. By simultaneously accounting for the speckle noise, the proposed stochastic approach derives the refined wet snow probability map. The performance analyses are carried out both through the comparison with the ground air temperature map and by comparing two copolarized channels processed separately.
