Inter-Comparison of Satellite-Based Sea Ice Concentration in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctica
We conducted a comparison of sea ice concentration (SIC) in the Amundsen Sea using three satellite datasets: Hadley Centre’s sea ice and sea surface temperature (HadISST1), Operational Sea Surface Temperature and Ice Analysis (OSTIA), and Advanced ...

DETAILED VALIDATION OF AMSR2 SEA ICE CONCENTRATION DATA USING MODIS DATA IN THE SEA OF OKHOTSK [PDF]
Global warming is one of the most serious problems we are facing in the 21st Century. Sea ice has an important role of reflecting the solar radiation back into space.

A NEW WEATHER FILTER FOR REDUCING WEATHER EFFECT IN CALCULATING SEA ICE CONCENTRATION FROM AMSR2 DATA [PDF]
Ice concentration is one of the most fundamental parameters of sea ice which can be calculated from brightness temperatures measured by passive microwave radiometers such as AMSR2 onboard satellites.

Microwave Emissivity of Typical Vegetated Land Types Based on AMSR2
To investigate the microwave radiation characteristics of different vegetation types, the “pure pixels” of 12 typical vegetated land types were selected and corresponding emissivity was retrieved under clear sky based on L1C AMSR2 observed brightness temperatures (TBs). According to the retrieved values for the 12 types, the spectral features in summer

Evaluation of Marine Surface Wind Speed Observations From AMSR2 on GCOM-W Satellite [PDF]
Observations of marine surface scalar wind speeds from the advanced microwave scanning radiometer 2 (AMSR2), onboard the global change observation mission-water satellite (GCOM-W), were evaluated by comparisons with offshore moored buoy measurements ...

Snow depth on sea ice is a major constituent of the marine cryosphere. It is a key parameter for the derivation of sea-ice thickness from satellite altimetry. One way to retrieve the basin-scale snow depth on sea ice is by satellite microwave radiometry.
