| Title: | Identification of late-summer snow lines on glaciers in Alaska and the Yukon Territory with ERS-1 SAR imagery / T.K. Ahlnäs, Craig S. Lingle, William D. Harrison, T.A. Heinrichs, Keith A. Echelmeyer. |
| Author(s): | Ahlnäs, T. K. Lingle, Craig S. Harrison, William D. Heinrichs, T. A. Echelmeyer, Keith A. |
| Date: | 1992. |
| In: | Eos : transactions, American Geophysical Union. (1992.), Vol. 73(43, fall meeting supplement) (1992) |
| Abstract: | Abstract only. C-band SAR images acquired since July 1991 launch of ERS-1 permit observation of glaciers and ice fields during all seasons through characteristic thick clouds. Results support hypothesis that late-summer snowlines are more easily identifiable in mid-winter SAR imagery than in late-summer imagery because of absence of meltwater, combined with transparent nature of overlying dry winter snow. |
