Observations of wave refraction at an ice edge by synthetic aperture radar / Antony K. Liu, Paris W. Vachon, Chih Y. Peng.
Title: | Observations of wave refraction at an ice edge by synthetic aperture radar / Antony K. Liu, Paris W. Vachon, Chih Y. Peng. |
Author(s): | Liu, Antony K. Vachon, Paris W. Peng, Chih Y. |
Date: | 1991. |
In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1991.), Vol. 96(C3) (1991) |
Abstract: | Penetration of dominant swell from open ocean into ice was observed off coast of Newfoundland, March 1987. At ice edge with large curvature, dominant swell component disappeared locally in airborne SAR imagery. Six subscenes of waves in marginal ice zone from SAR image have been processed, revealing total reflection, refraction, and energy reduction of ocean waves by ice. Observed variations of wave spectra are consistent with model prediction of wave refraction at ice edge due to change of wave dispersion relation in ice developed by Liu and Mollo-Christensen (1988) |
