Snow properties measurements (in situ & retrived from satellite) at Dome C, East Antarctica Plateau

The dataset contains the data inputs for the electromagnetic model: the snow density profile down to 20 m depth (measured in 2010) the snow SSA profile down to 20 m depth (measured in 2010) the snow temperature profile down to 20 m depth (measured from 1 December 2006 to 4 October 2011) The dataset contains also the data retrieved from satellite: the retrieved surface snow density from AMSR-E satellite (obtained from 18 June 2002 to 4 October 2011) The dataset contains finally the data measured in situ to compare with the data retrieved from satellite: the surface snow density from CALVA program (measured from 3 February 2010 to 4 October 2011) the surface snow density from PNRA program measured in snow pits (measured from 18 December 2007 to 4 October 2011) the surface snow density from PNRA program measured next to stakes (measured from 9 May 2008 to 4 October 2011)
