PROCEDURE OF EXTRACTING THIN ICE AREAS IN THE SEA OF OKHOTSK USING MODIS DATA [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2022 The latest IPCC report clearly stated that the human influence is the main reason of sea ice reduction in the Arctic. Importance of sea ice monitoring from space is increasing.

Dependence of Sea Ice Yield-Curve Shape on Ice Thickness [PDF]
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2004 Abstract In this note, the authors discuss the contribution that frictional sliding of ice floes (or floe aggregates) past each other and pressure ridging make to the plastic yield curve of sea ice. Using results from a previous study that explicitly modeled the amount of sliding and ridging that occurs for a given global strain rate, it

Measuring and inferring the ice thickness distribution of four glaciers in the Tien Shan, Kyrgyzstan
Journal of Glaciology, 2021 Glaciers in the Tien Shan mountains contribute considerably to the fresh water used for irrigation, households and energy supply in the dry lowland areas of Kyrgyzstan and its neighbouring countries. To date, reconstructions of the current ice volume and

Modeling the thermodynamics of a sea ice thickness distribution: 1. Sensitivity to ice thickness resolution [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1997 A one‐dimensional ice thickness distribution model is presented to determine the minimum number of ice thicknesses necessary to resolve the area‐averaged annual cycles of ice thickness and turbulent fluxes. The baseline case includes 40 ice thickness categories; ice thickness and area, meltwater ponds, ice salinity and age, snow cover, and surface ...

Enhancing sea ice knowledge through assimilation of sea ice thickness from ENVISAT and CS2SMOS [PDF]
The CryosphereArctic sea ice extent has declined significantly over the past four decades, opening up the Arctic to shipping and resource extraction while also impacting wildlife and local communities.

Antarctic sea ice thickness and snow-to-ice conversion from atmospheric reanalysis and passive microwave snow depth [PDF]
, 2008 Passive microwave snow depth, ice concentration, and ice motion estimates are combined with snowfall from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) reanalysis (ERA-40) from 1979-2001 to estimate the prevalence of snow-to-ice ...

Emergence of the Shackleton Range from beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet due to glacial erosion [PDF]
, 2014 This paper explores the long-term evolution of a subglacial fjord landscape in the Shackleton Range, Antarctica. We propose that prolonged ice-sheet erosion across a passive continental margin caused troughs to deepen and lower the surrounding ice-sheet ...

A Bayesian ice thickness estimation model for large-scale applications
Journal of Glaciology, 2020 Accurate estimations of ice thickness and volume are indispensable for ice flow modelling, hydrological forecasts and sea-level rise projections. We present a new ice thickness estimation model based on a mass-conserving forward model and a Bayesian ...
