Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar satellite and ground-based Ku- and X-band scatterometer measurements are used to explore the scattering mechanism for ice in shallow Arctic lakes, wherein strong radiometric responses are seen for floating ice, and low returns are evident where the ice has grounded. Scatterometer measurements confirm that high backscatter is from the ice/water interface, whereas polarimetric decomposition suggests that the dominant scattering mechanism from that interface is single bounce. Using Fresnel equations, a simple model for surface bounce from the ice/water interface is proposed, and its predictions are supported by experimental parameters such as co-pol phase difference, co-pol ratio, and the results of rigorous numerical modeling. Despite early research suggesting double-bounce scattering from columnar air bubbles and the ice/water interface as the dominant scattering mechanism in shallow lakes, this paper strongly supports a single-bounce model.
