Abstract:	GNSS-R techniques are currently being studied to remotely sense a number of geophysical parameters over different types of surfaces [1-6]. The Interference Pattern Technique (IPT) is based on the measurement of the interference pattern of the GPS direct and reflected signals, after reflecting over the surface, as the GPS satellites move. This paper extends previous studies [7-11], in which water level was monitored [7] and land areas were observed retrieving soil moisture, topography and vegetation height for different kinds of crops (wheat, barley and maize) [8-10], to a snow- covered soils studies.
