Polar oceans from space / Josefino Comiso.

Title: Polar oceans from space / Josefino Comiso.
Author(s): Comiso, Josefino.
Date: 2010.
Publisher: London: Springer
Abstract: Presents introductory material about polar oceans, particularly ice-covered areas and peripheral seas as observed by satellite sensors. Topics include: fundamental characteristics of oceans and their sea ice cover; remote sensing techniques; variability of surface pressure, winds and clouds; variability of surface temperature and albedo; characteristics and variability of ice cover; polynyas; variability of phytoplankton pigment concentrations and primary productivity; and decadal changes, correlations and extra-polar connections.
