A method to determine lake depth and water availability on the North Slope of Alaska with spaceborne imaging radar and numerical ice growth modelling / M.O. Jeffries, K. Morris, G.E. Liston.
Title: | A method to determine lake depth and water availability on the North Slope of Alaska with spaceborne imaging radar and numerical ice growth modelling / M.O. Jeffries, K. Morris, G.E. Liston. |
Author(s): | Jeffries, M. O. Morris, K. Liston, G. E. |
Date: | 1996. |
In: | Arctic. (1996.), Vol. 49(4) (1996) |
Abstract: | Presents study on lake depth variability for two regions of Alaska's North slope using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) to determine where lake ice is frozen completely to lake bottom and where liquid water still persists beneath ice. Numerical ice growth model is used to determine ice thickness at time each lake freezes completely to bottom and thus suggests maximum lake depth. This method could be used to determine lake depth and water availability over whole of North Slope and in other polar areas with shallow lakes. |
