A comparison of sea-ice thickness measurements made using ship-mounted and airborne electromagnetic induction devices
Progress Code: completed Statement: The PS100 laser altimeter used for these measurements was found to operate incorrectly in conditions of bright sunlight. Raw laser altimeter data contains numerous spurious values. An edited dataset is currently being created. Average sea ice floe size was encount...
