I was intrigued by this statement in the 'looking ahead' article:

QUOTE "Altimetry observations would allow RADAR to confirm the presence of liquid within Ontario."

Can anybody explain how this works? I was of the impression that the lake surface would be invisible to the RADAR, as it is in the imaging mode, meaning any altimetry there would be from the lake bottom. So how exactly will the presence of liquid be confirmed ?
