Potential for the combination of multifrequency SAR acquisitions and optical data for polynia research
Coastal polynias are highly dynamical open water areas in the sea-ice-covered oceans of the Polar Regions. Their occurrence is mainly triggered by strong katabatic winds that push the ice pack offshore. Due to the lack of an insulating thicker sea ice cover, polynias have a strong impact on the heat...
