Radar Reflectivity at Whillans Ice Plain

<p>This is an extracted data product for radar bed reflectivity from Whillans Ice Plain, West Antarctica. The original data are hosted by the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS; see associated citation below). The files here can be recalculate and are meant to be used within a set of computational notebooks here:<br>https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10859135</p> <p>There are two csv files included here, each structured as a Pandas dataframe.&nbsp;You can load them in Python like:<br><code>df = pd.read_csv('./Picked_Bed_Power.csv')</code></p> <p>The first file, 'Picked_Bed_Power.csv' is the raw, uncorrected power from the radar image at the bed pick provided by CReSIS. There are also other useful variables for georeferencing, flight attributes, etc.</p> <p>The second file, 'Processed_Reflectivity.csv' is processed from the first file. Processing includes: 1) a spreading correction; 2) an attenuation correction; and, 3) a power adjustment flight days based on compared power at crossover points. This file also has identifiers for regions including "grounded ice", "ungrounded ice", and "subglacial lakes".</p>
