Abstract
The workshop gathered almost 50 scientists from Europe and the United States to discuss the progress toward developing electromagnetic scattering databases for ice and snow particles in the microwave region, their applications, the physical approximations used to compute these scattering properties, and how remote sensing and in situ observations can be used to validate scattering datasets.
