New version of the internal ice sheet temperature over Antartica

The new version of the internal ice sheet temperature estimated from SMOS over Antarctica is now available.This dataset is based on the combination of L-band (1.4 GHz) passive microwave observations with glaciological and emission models. The study highlights the potential of low microwave frequencies for investigating the internal temperature of the ice sheet.
