Barrow Airborne Sea Ice Thickness Surveys
As an international partner, the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research provides measurements of sea ice thickness obtained by a helicopter based electromagnetic (EM) ice thickness sensor. A description of the system is given in Haas et al. (2007). In principle the distance between t...
