title = "First Results from a Dual Ku- and C-Band Airborne SAR for Snowpack Measurements",
abstract = "This article presents the first results of the newly conceived airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar system, SNOWWI.SNOWWI is a dual Ku- and C-Band interferometric and dualpolarized (VV and VH) system operating at 13.64 GHz, 17.24 GHz, and 5.39 GHz. The system aims to deliver snowpack observations to quantify Snow Depth (SD) and Snow Water Equivalent (SWE), which have been included as Targeted Observables in the National Academies' 2017 Decadal Strategy for Earth Observation from Space. This manuscript includes results from the system's first deployment in Grand Mesa, CO, in January and March 2024.",
