MARC recordTheoretical estimates of light reflection and transmission by spatially complex and temporally varying sea ice covers / Donald K. Perovich.
| Title: | Theoretical estimates of light reflection and transmission by spatially complex and temporally varying sea ice covers / Donald K. Perovich. |
| Author(s): | Perovich, Donald K. |
| Date: | 1990. |
| In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1990.), Vol. 95(C6) (1990) |
| Abstract: | Uses two-stream, multilayer radiative transfer model in wavelength region from 400 to 1000 nm. Ice cover is characterized as layered medium composed of selections from nine distinct snow and ice types, and three case studies are presented. Results suggest that small-scale horizontal variations in snow depth and ice thickness can cause light transmission to change over 3 orders of magnitude. Dramatic changes in reflection and transmission are predicted during early melt season as ice evolves from opaque, snow-covered medium to translucent bare or ponded ice. Implications for remote sensing. |
