Simultaneous Passive And Active Microwave Observations Of Near-Shore Beaufort Sea Ice

The use of active and passive microwave imagery in combination is the optimum way to observe the morphology and dynamics of near shore ice. Active and passive microwave data from aircraft that are described in this paper are also compared to the ESMR (Electrically Scanning Microwave Radiometer) imag...
