Abstract
We propose a method for measuring in situ and continuously, the water content of a sample of snow in the snow cover. This method is based on the measurement of the attenuation of an electromagnetic wave propagating in a sample of snow situated between two antennae, an emitter and a receiver. The working frequency is 9.4 GHz.Keywords
