MARC recordKu band airborne radar altimeter observations of marginal sea ice during the 1984 marginal ice zone experiment / Mark R. Drinkwater.
| Title: | Ku band airborne radar altimeter observations of marginal sea ice during the 1984 marginal ice zone experiment / Mark R. Drinkwater. |
| Author(s): | Drinkwater, Mark R. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1991.), Vol. 96(C3) (1991) |
| Abstract: | Pulse-limited, airborne radar data taken in June and July 1984 with 13.8-GHz altimeter over Fram Strait marginal ice zone are analyzed with large-format air photography, airborne synthetic aperture radar data, and surface observations. Variations in radar return pulse waveforms are quantified and correlated with ice properties recorded during MIZEX. Results indicate suitability of wide-beam altimeter for this purpose and suggest that microwave radar altimeters have not yet been fully exploited for study of sea ice. |
| Notes: | Journal of Geophysical Research. Vol. 96(C3) :4555-4572 (1991). |
