High quality field measurements of avalanche flows are required for calibrating computational models which are an essential tool in managing the threat posed by these flows. In this paper we present a new C-band FMCW radar system developed at Univers... Read More about FMCW Radar Imaging of Avalanche-Like Snow Movements.
