A-scope data from sounder with wide antenna beams include information on the scattering characteristics at the ice sheet surface, within the ice sheet itself, and at the bedrock sub-surface. Characteristics are modeled from the A-scope form by using expanded radar equations which allow determination of the roughness of the ice sheet and bedrock surfaces. Results indicate a strong dependence of backscatter from the ice surface with incidence angle and a weak dependence in backscatter from the bedrock.}, pages = {142--151}, title = {Radio scattering characteristics of Antarctic ice sheet using airborne radio echo sounding data}, volume = {2}, year = {1989} }
