Multi-band SAR intercomparison study in the Antarctic Peninsula for sea ice and iceberg detection

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems are one of the best resources to gather information in polar environments, but the detection and monitoring of sea ice types and icebergs using them is still a challenge. Limitations using single-frequency images in

Surveying Drifting Icebergs and Ice Islands: Deterioration Detection and Mass Estimation with Aerial Photogrammetry and Laser Scanning

Remote Sensing, 2018
Icebergs and ice islands (large, tabular icebergs) are challenging targets to survey due to their size, mobility, remote locations, and potentially difficult environmental conditions.

Estimation of the volume of icebergs calved from the outlet glaciers of the Severnaya Zemlya archipelago for 2014–2019

Лëд и снег, 2021
Volume of icebergs calved from the output glaciers located on the Northern Land during 2014–2019 was estimated using the satellite information. High-resolution satellite data were obtained in the visible spectral range from the non-commercial satellites ...

Icebergs, jigsaw puzzles, and genealogy: automated multi-generational iceberg tracking and lineage reconstruction [PDF]

The Cryosphere
Tabular icebergs calve from ice shelves and glaciers in Antarctica, Greenland, and northern Ellesmere Island. These “ice islands”, as they are referred to in the Arctic, drift, melt, and fragment, contributing freshwater and nutrients to the ocean ...

Deep Learning for Iceberg Detection in Satellite Images

, 2021
The application of satellite images for ship and iceberg monitoring is essential in many ways in Arctic waters. Even though the detection of ships and icebergs in images is well established using Geoscience techniques, the discrimination between those ...

Forecasting the severity of the Newfoundland iceberg season using a control systems model [PDF]

, 2019
The iceberg hazard for the Grand Banks area to the east of Newfoundland varies dramatically from one year to the next. In some years no icebergs penetrate south of 48°N, while in others well over 1000 icebergs enter the main shipping lanes between Europe
