SEA ICE-75 : Analysis of SLAR data Parashar, Surendra
Series: Research report ; 16:4Publication details: Norrköping Sjöfartsverket, 1976; Sjöfartsstyrelsen [Finland], ; Styrelsen för vintersjöfartsforskning, Description: 54 s, USBSubject(s): Online resources: Bibl.nr: VTI 2014.0020Location: Abstract: The purpose of this report is to present results obtained from the analysis of SLAR (Side-Looking Airborne Radar) data collected during the "Sea Ice -75" experiment. This experiment was conducted in the Bay of Bothnia during March, 1975. The data gathered during this remote sensing experiment included SLAR images of sea ice obtained by utilizing EMI X-band (wavelength, z, 3 cm) real-aperture radar. Despite the fact that the radar images are of poor to moderate quality, a number of meaningful conclusions can be drawn. In an effort to help explain and understand some of the results, included are sections on the formation of sea ice and its relevant characteristics, the nature of radar return from sea ice, and sea ice parameters of interest.| Current library | Status | |
