Sea Ice Melt Ponds: Snow, SSL, and Pond Depths

Snow, surface scattering layer (SSL), or melt pond depths are measured by inserting a metal probe with centimeter gradations into the surface until it struck hard ice. Positive (+) measurements reflect snow or loose decaying ice crystals known as the surface scattering layer, while negative (-) meas...
