Main publication details
MARC recordPolar Remote Sensing. Volume 2. Ice Sheets / Robert Massom, Dan Lubin.
| Title: | Polar Remote Sensing. Volume 2. Ice Sheets / Robert Massom, Dan Lubin. |
| Author(s): | Massom, Robert. Lubin, Dan. |
| Date: | 2006. |
| Publisher: | Chichester: Springer/Praxis |
| Abstract: | Focuses on polar ice sheets of Antarctic and Greenland, including icebergs and interactions between ice sheets and atmosphere and ocean. Introduces ice sheets' global importance and mass balance and impact of satellite remote sensing on glaciology. Summarizes principles of detectors, imaging and geophysical product retrieval. In sections: Introduction; Synthetic aperture radar interferometry and related techniques; Satellite remote sensing of ice sheet parameters and processes. Last includes: detection and mapping of surface features, surface melting and freezing, changes in ice sheet margins, icebergs, etc.; measurement of ice sheet topography, surface elevation changes, accumulation rate, ice velocity, surface temperature and albedo; tidal displacement of ice shelves, grounding line detection, etc. |
