Title: <\/strong>Developing Remote-sensing Capabilities for Meter-scale Sea-ice Properties
\nPrincipal Investigator:<\/strong> Karen Frey
\nFunding Agency:<\/strong> US Office of Naval Research<\/p>\n

An increasing array of higher resolution commercial satellite assets has created the opportunity to track meter-scale sea ice properties over large areas. These satellite assets provide capabilities at high enough resolution to directly resolve features like melt ponds, floe boundaries, and individual ridges. These features have not been resolved by the majority of earlier space-based remote sensing assets, but are of substantial geophysical importance. Collecting imagery of sea ice using these assets and applying this imagery to track meter-scale processes at carefully chosen, regionally representative sites will provide an important set of data products for modeling and process studies, and permit a newly comprehensive assessment of the processes driving sea ice loss in the Arctic. This project focuses on disseminating both data and techniques developed to ensure the broadest possible impact of the work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
