Ice-Cover Monitoring

River Ice Processes and Ice Flood Forecasting, 2019
This chapter illustrates many techniques used to monitor the ice cover during the winter season, which are necessary to determine important characteristics of the ice cover. Such information is useful when making predictions concerning ice-cover breakup and ice-jamming potential at the end of the winter season.

Perspectives on the Arctic's Shrinking Sea-Ice Cover

Science, 2007
Linear trends in arctic sea-ice extent over the period 1979 to 2006 are negative in every month. This ice loss is best viewed as a combination of strong natural variability in the coupled ice-ocean-atmosphere system and a growing radiative forcing associated with rising concentrations of atmospheric greenhouse gases, the latter supported by evidence of

Assessment of machine learning classifiers for global lake ice cover mapping from MODIS TOA reflectance data

Remote Sensing of Environment, 2020
The topic of satellite remote sensing of lake ice has gained considerable attention in recent years. Optical satellite data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) allow for the monitoring of lake ice cover (an Essential Climate ...

Life in Ice-Covered Oceans

Science, 1999
Recent reports that Jupiter's satellites Europa and Callisto may have ice-covered oceans have fueled speculation that they may be inhabited by living organisms. Gaidos et al. analyze the thermodynamic requirements for life on Europa by analogy with life on Earth today and during past "snowball" Earth episodes.
